A new day has dawned...

On December 12, 2007, the Rt. Rev. Henry I. Louttit laid hands upon my head, invoked the Holy Ghost, and I was forever changed. In a powerful and magnificent service, my time of preparation and training came to fruition as I was ordained a priest in Christ's One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. I will serve my first cure as Curate at All Saints' Church in Thomasville, GA. We are a 1928 Book of Common Prayer parish, with the Bishop's permission and blessing, and we celebrate the opportunity to worship using the traditional rites within our Anglican heritage.

Advent III was a tremendous day for me as well as I approached the Holy Table for the first time as a priest to celebrate the Sacred Mysteries. It was a wonderful occasion, and one that I will never forget. I await with eagerness the celebration of the Incarnation in a new light as a clergyman.
