Box Tops is changing to fit today's families. The new and improved Box Tops mobile app uses state-of-the-art
technology to scan your store receipt, find participating products and instantly add Box Tops to your school's earnings online.

clip to the new Box Top label.
If you see this label, use the new Box Tops app to scan your receipt. Box Tops are still worth 10¢ each for your school. The app will find participating
products purchased at any store and instantly
add cash to your school's earnings online!

Are you new to the Parish? Has your contact information changed? Parish registration is very important to the life of our parish. It tells us who is here, what demographics we serve and how to plan better for our changing needs. Forms are available on the book shelf in the back of church and on our website (ssfrancisjohn.org). You can return them to the parish office, by mail or email or in the weekend collections basket. If your information has changed call or email the parish office at 502-863-3404 or parishoffice@ssfrancisjohn.org.
Do You Know Someone in Need? 
Life is truly a journey…and sometimes the way is rough. Whether it’s a loss of employment, kids worrying the heck out of you, a spouse who is sick, or any other challenge or loss, sometimes it’s helpful to have a companion. We naturally turn to trusted friends, but sometimes we worry about burdening a friend or feel that we might have to put life together in their way or time. Wouldn’t it be nice to have an “ear” that doesn’t judge – that has no agenda or timetable, someone who can keep a confidence – just to not be so lonely while working things out? Someone who trusts God – but also trusts you-- to work your situation out in your own time? That’s what Stephen Ministers do – they respectfully join you in your journey, listening and offering confidential support and encouragement. Need a companion for your journey? Contact Father Linh (502-863-3404)fr.linh@ssfrancisjohn.org; or call Marion Cook (502-542-0127) (cook.marion@yahoo.com) or Mike Daukas
(502 316-5799) mrjd50@gmail.com.
