Youth News!
Thomas Coleman will be serving as St. John's interim Youth Director. This is a part-time position, since Thomas spends part of each week in Aiken, where he serves as the Program Director for Camp Gravatt. Many of you know that Thomas grew up at St. John’s. His parents are Ralph and Mary Wallace Coleman. He was also active in the EYC programs, as a teenager. Besides his many years at Gravatt, Thomas also has had experience as a part-time youth director at St. David’s and St. Michael and All Angels, Episcopal Churches. Thomas has agreed to work for us until the end of May. In the meantime, we will begin to interview for a Director of Family Ministries. 

Please make him feel welcome and encourage your children and their friends to join us on Sunday nights as we seek to “accept God’s grace, grow in faith, and serve Christ in the world.”
