Photograph caption dated September 16, 1961 reads, "The Rev. Lowell B. McDowell, rector at St. Mark's Episcopal Church, 14646 Sherman Way, Van Nuys, explains communion symbols to Sally Huff, 17, as alcolytes [sic] Norm Emerson, 14, left, and Bill Federson, 14, assist. Youth groups at many Valley Episcopal churches will participate in special services Sunday as part of a nationwide observance sponsored each September by Episcopal Young Churchmen. 'Our young churchmen will join in common worship and pray for each other and dedicate themselves to Christ as they enter the new school year,' Father McDowell said."
