Education Ministries
Mission Statement:
The Christian Nurture committee will provide St. John's with
a wide range of nurturing and educational experiences. These experiences will
fulfill the vows made by the congregation at our children's baptisms, assist our
youth in developing a relationship with God and provide opportunities for
spiritual growth for adults.
