Juniper “Jay” LaNunziata is the Director of Christian Formation at St. Paul’s, which means that they are responsible for the Sunday morning programming for children and youth, including our Christian formation hour (known elsewhere as Sunday school) and Godly Play, a Montessori-based Christian formation program for children that occurs during the first part of the 10:30 a.m. service of Holy Eucharist, with children returning to the main service during the Peace. Jay loves to bake bread, drink boba tea, and go geocaching. (Have you found the geocache they placed on St. Paul’s campus yet?) Jay attended Mid-Atlantic Christian University and received a Bachelor of Arts in both Cross-Cultural Studies and Bible.

Jay is also responsible for our digital communications at St. Paul’s, publishing our Wednesday and Saturday newsletters and managing our website and social media.
