Sunday, October 05, 2025: World Communion Sunday: Bread Auction and Chili Cook-Off

World Communion Sunday at St. John’s

Every year on World Communion Sunday, we celebrate with our Annual Bread Auction & Chili Cook-Off! Join us this year on Sunday, October 5 after service in Fellowship Hall for one of our favorite days of the year!

Bread Auction

This tradition is more than bread—we welcome all baked goods: rolls, muffins, cookies, brownies, cakes, pies, etc., sweet or savory. Our children serve as the auctioneers, making it a joyful (and often hilarious!) fundraiser.

Chili Cook-Off

Drop off your crock pot of chili downstairs before service, then join in the friendly competition after! We’ll provide tasting cups and spoons so everyone can sample & vote.

Proceeds benefit our Education Program—helping fund supplies, snacks, crafts, and outings for our kids throughout the year. Donations accepted by cash, check, or card.

Celebrate World Communion Sunday with fellowship, food, and fun—while supporting our children’s ministry!
