Teens and Young Adults:
The SsAM Soul Youth Group
We have a faithful group of middle and high school youth who come together twice a month for fellowship and formation. We thank our youth advisors, Rayon and Christine Pinnock, for bringing this group together. We pray that our youth will, in the midst of their busy lives, find a place here at SsAM where they may learn and grow in God's Love.

SsAM 2011 Scholarship Recipients
Ten members of SsAM returned to school in the fall of 2011 supported by scholarships awarded through the Canon Lloyd Casson Scholarship Program. The program, administered by the Community Advocacy Committee, receives funding from the church budget and parishioners' donations through the AIM Fund. Thanks to the generosity of our members, over $570 was contributed in 2011 toward the scholarship program and additional funds were donated in memory of Betty Hunt. We are very proud of these young people as they pursue higher education and their commitment to the community.
