Something most people don’t know about me is: not too much – I’m pretty much an open book

What St. John’s means to me: St. John’s is a wonderful mixture of traditions, life styles, spiritualities, and liturgies. I am thrilled to be a part of St. John’s slow transition to “broad church.” I did not find this as welcoming a place as many others did when they first arrived, but I stuck with it. Now you can’t get rid of me!
