Shared by Saint John the Evangelist Catholic Church on
St. John’s has had a partnership with Beechfield EMS for over 25 years. Parishioners have shared children’s books with classes and holiday gifts with families in need. In the past, parishioners have helped with fun activities to reward students with perfect or near perfect school attendance, and certificates for good attendance and achievement. They have also helped raise scholarship money for field trips for students in need, and help run evenings for families to learn about activities to improve literacy and STEM skills. In addition, St. John’s has assisted other city schools with books, games and materials for bilingual students and school supplies. We welcome new volunteers interested in becoming involved with this wonderful ministry to teachers and children.
