Christian 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.
