St. John’s is a special church
for us. Courtney and her mother attended service there when Laura Kramer
visited Washington, D.C. and
Scott volunteered with a homeless shelter there for while when he was
a student. The church is quite historical, the original church building
was started in 1796 and completed in 1804. Many people helped with the
cost of building the church, including President Thomas Jefferson who
contributed $50. Dolley Madison was also a regular attendee as well as
Francis Scott Key, the author of our National Anthem. For more information
