For nearly 30 years, the Dorcas Guild at St. John has given women an opportunity to serve their Lord through their time and talents. The Dorcas Guild was formed in 1997 as a local unit of the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League. Its name comes from Dorcas, a woman in Acts 9 who was known for doing good and helping those in need.

For one longtime member, the story goes back even further. She remembers joining St. John with her young family in 1964, when the St. John LWML met each month in the evening. The group’s annual Turkey Supper and Bazaar was well known throughout the community. As the years passed, some members began talking about forming a group that could meet during the day. In 1997, that vision became a reality with the formation of the Dorcas Guild.

Since then, countless St. John women have served through the Guild, creating handmade quilts and other items, supporting mission projects and finding new ways to give back to the church and community. Hundreds of quilts have been donated to organizations including Lutheran World Relief, Abba’s House and Star of Hope.

Recently, the Dorcas Guild gathered to pray over the quilts and other handmade items. Each piece represents women using what God has given them to bless others. Through the Dorcas Guild, God continues to work through generations of women who are willing to serve. They are helping connect others to the true riches found in Jesus! God at work.

Two of our members are a blessing to the staff and residents at a local assisted living community. God is using their gifts and kindness to make a lasting impact.

One of them creates special handmade cards and bookmarks for every staff member and resident to celebrate birthdays and other occasions. She even makes thank-you cards specifically for the staff members who serve the community. Each card is designed to hang, and they have found their way onto walkers, residents’ doors, apartments and offices. These personal gifts remind people that someone sees them, remembers them and cares about them.

There are often smiles when the cards are delivered—and sometimes tears, too. For residents and staff alike, receiving something made especially for them can be a deeply moving gift. Her kindness opens the door to connection.

Her husband quietly supports her in this intentional ministry while also finding his own ways to share his faith. He often wears Christian T-shirts that spark conversations. One of his favorites says, “Jesus napped too,” and it has prompted plenty of comments and opportunities to talk about Jesus.

Together, they are living out their faith in simple, intentional ways. They are connecting their neighbors to the true riches found in Jesus. Their gifts communicate a simple but powerful message: You are loved. You are seen. You matter. God at work.

At a recent training at St. John’s Early Childhood Center, staff members were asked to mark the age when they were first introduced to Jesus. As in years past, most placed their stars in the 0–5 age bracket—a beautiful reminder of the impact of sharing Jesus with children while they are young.

One staff member stood in line nervously. She had not been introduced to Jesus until after she was married. Though she knew no one would judge her, she still felt embarrassed as she placed her star and returned to her seat.

At first, she was sad. She felt like she had missed out on years of knowing Jesus. Then her sadness turned to joy as she realized something important: it didn’t matter when she came to know Him. What mattered was that she did. Then she realized she could help give other children the opportunity she never had.

“What I was denied,” she said, “will stop with me.”

Now she can’t wait to tell the children in her classroom about Jesus, her Savior and their Savior. What a beautiful picture of God turning something she once viewed as a loss into a purpose. Through her, children will have the opportunity to know Jesus from an early age.

God at work in our Early Childhood Center.

In 2020, St. John member, Michele, taught herself how to loom knit by watching videos. It really started as a hobby, but it quickly became so much more than that. She found that knitting helped her unwind at the end of the day and she loved being able to make things for other people.

Michele started with hats. She made a lot of hats and gave them away to people. Then she moved on to crocheting and found that she loved it even more. She made scrunchies that were donated to Prosperity Bank to sell as part of an Easter Seals fundraiser. Last year, she began making blankets for friends and family who were expecting babies.

Recently, God has given Michele another way to use her creativity. She has started making gifts and including a Bible verse with each one. She wants to share her faith and spread God’s Word in any way she can. When Michele’s brother-in-law began battling cancer, she made him a blanket. Before giving it to him, she prayed over it. She has also started including Bible verses with the gifts she makes. Recently, she made a blanket for Dawson, a new baby welcomed into the St. John family, and chose Psalm 127:3 to accompany it. "Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward."

Michele says, “God has been my rock, strength and encouragement, and I want to start sharing verses of encouragement with others.”

This is such a beautiful reminder that God can take something we love and use it to bless and encourage others. Michele is using her creativity to share God's Word and point people to the God who has been her rock and strength.

God at work.

Our St. John Early Childhood Center has been full of smiles and excitement the last two days as we kicked off our new school year. We even rolled out the red carpet for our big stars. If you were a church mouse, you would've seen supportive families bringing their most precious children to school. The colorful welcome, shiny new shoes and backpacks, and pristine crayons surrounded you. You witnessed big grins and laughter and also a few tears. And then when you saw tears, you'd have seen someone close by with tissues and a hug. You would've watched staff from the ECC and from the Church praying over children and families. You would've felt your heart swell because the Holy Spirit was so present and moving in this special place. As a church mouse, you'd know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus is in this place and leading us as we are Educating for Eternity!
