Youth Group - EYC
Last Updated On: 04/17/08

Mission statement: A community of young worshippers committed to spiritual growth through deeper religious understandings, increased spirituality, and steadfast relationships with one another.
The Episcopal Youth Church group at St John’s is open to anyone in grades 6 through 12. Our church is blessed with students from many school districts and areas across York County. Our goal is to bring the youth in our parish and community together for fun, fellowship and service. Examples of past activities include: White Water Rafting trips, navigating a Corn Maze at night with flashlights, indoor Rock Climbing, a trip in New York city to assist a Soup Kitchen serving up to 1000 people daily, and participation in the CROP Walk. The EYC group provides a fun environment for youth to enjoy fellowship and help the parish and community. A listing of upcoming is shown below. Additional service projects will be added throughout the year. If you have any questions concerning the calendar or the EYC, please call Sean Page at 848-1737 or Father Sean Leonard at 848-1862.
