Thea Crouch

Thea will graduate from the Washington Waldorf School in early June. She will be attending Adelphi University in Long Island, NY this upcoming fall, where she will be majoring in Art and Design Education. Throughout her childhood at St. John’s, Thea served as an acolyte, participated in the annual Christmas pageant,  and joined the Flower Guild when she was in fifth grade. As a sophomore in high school, Thea joined the Parish Choir, and spent two weeks in the Holy Land with a group of fellow parishioners. Despite the pandemic, as well as long Zoom school days, Thea continued her loyal service in the Parish Choir by participating in the virtual choir offerings.

Isabel Tierney

Isabel will graduate from the Potomac School and plans to attend the University of Wisconsin at Madison.  She was christened and confirmed at St. John’s, where she enjoyed serving as an acolyte and chalice bearer.  In the annual Christmas Pageant, she played many roles, including an angel and a wild beast.  She says one of the highlights of her time at St. Johns was serving as Mary in the pageant, although she was afraid the Joseph she shared the stage with was going to drop the baby Jesus!
