WELCOME TO
St. John Lutheran Church
BOILING SPRINGS, PA
Chicken BBQ – August 2, 2025
Tickets are available at the church office on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, or you can contact Kathy Bixler or Susan Wise to purchase.
The LYFE Committee is asking for your help as we prepare for this fun event! We’re looking for donations of about 300 individual applesauce cups. If you’re able to contribute, please drop them off in the church library before August 2.
We’re also in need of volunteers to help out on the day of the BBQ. Set-up begins at 10:00 AM, and we’ll be wrapped up by 1:00 PM. If you’re available, please let Kathy Bixler or Angie Thomas know.
We’re so grateful for the congregation’s continued support—thank you! These events are always a great time, and we’d love to have you join us.
Help Us Prepare Lutheran World Relief Kits
It’s almost time to assemble our Lutheran World Relief Kits, and your support makes a big difference! You can help by donating items from the approved supply lists. Please be sure to follow the specific guidelines for each kit.
Donations may be placed in the bins located at the back of the church.
As assembly time approaches, we’ll share any specific items we’re short on. In the meantime, any contributions you can make from the lists are greatly appreciated!
It’s Gleaning Time at Project Share
Gleaning is a Biblical practice where growers leave excess crops in the field for others to harvest and use. At Project Share, volunteers help glean produce like cucumbers, tomatoes, corn, and melons from local farmers’ fields. The fresh food is then distributed to individuals and families in need.
It’s meaningful work—and a great way to give back! Gleaning events take place on Monday evenings from about 5:15 to 8:00 PM.
You can learn more and sign up at www.projectsharepa.org.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me, Jane Gillwood. I’ve signed up to glean on July 28th and August 18th, and if you’re planning to go and would like to carpool, just let me know!

Who We Are
St. John is a growing rural/suburban Lutheran church serving the greater Boiling Springs area.
We believe the most important priority of our church is to continue Christ’s mission to make disciples: know Jesus and make Jesus known.
What We Believe
As a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, we believe that we are freed by the grace of Christ to live faithfully, to serve and love our neighbor.
With our hands, we do God’s work of restoring and reconciling individuals and communities in Jesus Christ’s name throughout the world.
Meet Our Pastor
Pastor Virginia Cover has been serving as the interim pastor at St. John since January of 2024. The church is in the process of calling a new pastor. Read our Ministry Site Profile.
From time to time, one or more of our members may be recovering from an illness or hospital stay and could really appreciate the comfort of a home-cooked meal. If you’re willing to help by providing a meal when the need arises, please click the link below to sign up or learn more.
Your support makes a difference—and is always appreciated!
