St. John’s is a strong supporter of missions. In 2007, about 20 members of the congregation went to Tanzania and helped build a hospital for International Health Partners. We will have a group going Back2Africa the summer of 2012. See below for more information on this trip. You can find out more about International Health Partners website here:

And here are two pictures of the St. John’s trip from the IHP website:
BACK2AFRICA:
At the April Church Council meeting, the Back2Africa mission trip was approved for the summer of 2012.
The date was moved out by a year to accommodate all of the present activities at St. John’s. Providing equipment for X-ray and power generation to Nyakato Health Center in Mwanza, Tanzania is still the primary goals of the 2012 trip. The Back2Africa team will begin meeting soon to specify the equipment, plan logistics and begin looking for corporate donors of portable X-ray units and power generators. Please contact Hayley or Mike Doseck 260-490-7702 if you are interested in making the trip or just want to help.
