YOUNG ADULT GROUP

The Young Adult Group would like to extend Special Thanks to everyone who participated in this special event, our Church's 85th Anniversary Celebration. The event began with the welcome remarks given by Earleene Sealy, which was followed by the Pastoral Remarks given by our very own, The Rev. Fr. Jerrick F. Rayside. Immediately following the welcome and pastoral remarks, the audience was enlightened on the 85 years of history at St. John's Episcopal. Highlights included; all the priests who have served our Church as well as the early years of St. John's Episcopal Church and the Springfield Gardens community. Leaders of the 
Church ministries and programs of St. John's provided details of their ministry; history and current events.

In closing, the 85th Anniversary celebration ended with a History and Testimonial movie that showcased seven of our long time parishioners: Barbara Taylor, Edith Moore, Uriel Adams, Roslyn Sealy, Joan Lee, Arthur Mitchell and Eleanor Robinson, directed by Sharon Hunter. All the attendees then gathered in the undercroft to view more historical data and enjoy refreshments. If you have not been given a copy of the event catalog, please see any of the Young Adult Group members. Thanks to the members of the Young Adult Group for putting this event together: Earleene Sealy, Sharon Hunter, Cheryl Boyce, Roxann Samuels & Nicolette Cornelius. We hope we were able to enlighten you on the history of our Church!

Mission Statement
The mission of the St. John's Episcopal Church Young Adult Group is to explore new avenues of learning through involvement in the Church and community. We hope the teachings of spiritual guidance will offer a place for young adults to be empowered and share their ideas on creating an environment that will be nurtured by all parishioners.

We envision a spiritual community for young adults between the ages of eighteen and older who will work to maintain a leadership role within St. John's Episcopal Church, the Episcopalian community and our neighborhood embracing new ideas and relationships that support our mission.
