Serving others through Christmas projects is a tradition for many families and individuals at St. John’s. Each year parishioners share their blessings with approximately 150 neighbors in Norman and surrounding communities.
A gift tree, which seems to grow every year, starts the season with nearly 1 hundred ornaments, each with wishes from an elderly or disabled resident of a local nursing home. The wishes are filled as a pile of gifts grows under the tree near the church’s east entry.
