Has your teenager ever shaved a water balloon hanging over their head? Transformed themselves into a human bowling ball? Played Episcopalian nerf handball? Climbed an outdoors ropes course or untangled a human knot?
Have they ever discussed contemporary music lyrics in a group? Or shared their thoughts about relevant Bible passages? Or discussed current events from a spiritual perspective?
Have they ever worked side by side with students from the inner city to accomplish a task? Served dinner to the homeless or attended a church service on Boston Common? Have they ever been a junior usher or acolyte, a participant in the choir, or an intern with the church school?
If you think these activities might interest your teenager, register them for the St. John’s Junior/Senior Youth Group, which kicks off Sunday, October 19, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. in Lower Weld Hall. You can register them at our web site ( Click "Register Online" at the home page) or by mailing in the form at the end of this letter.
For more information, click on the Youth Group pages on this Web site.

SAVE THE DATE – Safe Church Training
A Safe Church Training course has been scheduled for October 18, 2008, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. here at St. John's. The tuition, prior to October 5, is $40.00. A late fee of $5.00 will be added to the tuition for registrations entered after October 4. Individuals completing this course will receive a Safe Church Training Certificate.
Safe church training certification is required by the Diocese of Massachusetts for all clergy and diocesan employees. The diocese also strongly recommends that parishes require Safe Church certification for all employees, elected parish officers, and most parish volunteers. Parish volunteers include Eucharistic visitors, pastoral visitors, youth leaders, confirmation sponsors, retreat mentors, acolyte leaders, choir directors, church school teachers, and other volunteers working in the parish on a regular basis.
The Safe Church Training Program authorized by the diocese is a six-hour course that outlines prevention and intervention in cases of abuse of children and intervention in situations of misconduct between adults. It is intended to increase awareness regarding sexual misconduct and abuse of power, to outline steps to take in preventing abuse, to offer ways to intervene when misconduct occurs, and to equip anyone in a position of parish leadership with ways of healing and rebuilding the body of Christ. St. John's parishioners are strongly urged to register for this session as soon as possible. The maximum number of participants is 40. If you are unable to attend this session you will have to go elsewhere in the diocese for training. Additional information, including alternate session locations and dates, can be found at http://www.rvan.org/Safe-Church.htm A direct link to the registration for all currently scheduled Safe Church Training Events is at http://www.regonline.com/safechurch.
