Serving in the Community
” You will be enriched in every way for great generosity,
which through us will produce thanksgiving to God”
2 Corinthians 9:11
St. John the Divine is blessed in many ways and one blessing is the generosity of our parishioners. Through this generosity St. John the Divine, in turn, donates back to the community.

Gainesville State School for Boys
The Gainesville State School is a juvenile correctional facility of the Texas Juvenile Justice Department in unincorporated Cooke County, Texas, near Gainesville. St. John donates monthly to the Student Council Center to insure the boys have certain needs met. These needs can range from personal items such as clothing and shoes and to help in whatever their needs are when they leave the school.
Grace Ministries
Grace Ministries Food Pantry in Burkburnett is where people in the community can go for emergency assistance with utility bills, rent, food, and more. St. John donates both monetarily and with pantry needs each month.
