Whit Monday May 22nd 1961 was a big day for Brian Lay and Ann Jordan - their Wedding Day. 50 years to the day they were back in St. Johns for the first time since then, joining the Morning service to celebrate their Golden Wedding. 
They had met at a Saturday night joint youth club (the boy's bible class & the girl's covenanters) at St Johns in 1955, getting engaged in January 1959, and held their engagement party in the church hall. 
They were welcomed by the current congregation and commented that the church had changed a lot in the fifty years!
Our photos show Brian & Ann Lay on their wedding day and again back at St. John's fifty years later.
On Sunday 20th March 2011 - Curate-in-charge from 1961 to 1964 Rev. Peter Yacomeni was welcomed to the 10:30 Service. Peter preached on Taxing Questions using as his text both Luke 20:20-26 on paying taxes to Caesar and Jeremiah 29:4-14 Jeremiah's letter on the Lord's words to the exiles.
Although Peter Yacomeni's term as Curate-in-Charge at St. John's started 50 years ago, our present Associate-Vicar Helen Durant-Stevensen had the pleasure of welcoming into the congregation many former members of the King's Own Youth Group from that time.
