🕯️ Join Us in Remembrance 🕯️
Each year, we come together to honor the lives of our neighbors who have experienced homelessness and are no longer with us.
You’re invited to join St. John Center for two special memorial gatherings:
💙December 19th – St. John Center 9am and Sheehan Landing 1pm
These moments of reflection remind us why our work matters — to ensure everyone has a place to call home and that no one is forgotten.
All are welcome to remember, reflect, and renew our shared commitment to dignity and hope for all.

Our coffee room is running low on supplies, and we could use your help to keep the caffeine flowing! 🫶

Coffee (ground)
Creamer (powder or shelf-stable)
Sugar, stir sticks, and cups
Every cup fuels the amazing work we do together — thank you for keeping our team energized and ready to serve! 💪
