Hello St. Paul's Youth and Families!
Lillian Hardaway here, the new Minister to Children, Youth, and Families! I am thrilled to be sending the first of many Youth Ministry Update Emails. In the next few weeks I will be releasing more information about Fall programming, and in this email I just wanted to say hello and announce an opportunity for youth to volunteer this Sunday, August 29th!
If you did not read my introduction in the St. Paul's announcement of my hire then here is some information about me!
I am a native of South Carolina and have been formed by the Episcopal Diocese of Upper South Carolina. I am a graduate of Clemson University and while in school I spent time in Ecuador, Haiti, and Argentina. My previous ministry experience includes work with youth, retreats and camps, and college ministries. I am excited to be adding new aspects of ministry through my work at St. Paul’s like the preschool, children and family ministries.
My husband, Thomas, and I moved to Alexandria at the end of July with our two cats and collection of house plants. We are living at Virginia Theological Seminary where my husband is enrolled in the Master in Divinity program. I look forward to meeting each of you face to face this Fall!
