John Schultz – Churchwarden

John came to St George’s in 1987 after moving to Parkview and immediately felt at home here. He’s been on the Parish Council at various times and long ago he was even Alternate Warden. We have been blessed with outstanding clergy over the years, which together with the parishioners has helped to make this a special place.

He feels that he is much too old to help with the youth now but the parish’s care for children and young people has always been dear to me.

Vision: For the parish to continue adding to its diversity without alienating anyone deliberately, supporting the clergy and continuing to build on our wonderful musical heritage.
