Father Stan has served for the past two years as the Associate for Christian Formation at Trinity. He is responsible for planning a variety of educational offerings for adults, including the Sunday Forum that regularly takes place after the 10:30 a.m. Eucharist.
Father Stan served as a parish priest for 32 years in churches in California and Washington state. He retired in 2004 after having served as the rector of St. Andrew’s, Seattle, for 22 years. He has always especially enjoyed the teaching aspect of ministry and has a special interest in Celtic Christian Spirituality and the relationship between Christianity and the Arts.
Since 1993, he has been involved with the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem and traveled to the Holy Land on four different occasions. This experience has informed his interest and teaching about the archeology of the Bible and advocacy for the Palestinian Christian community in the Holy Land today.
Father Stan and his wife Jeanne, a retired school teacher, live in Edmonds. They have two adult children, Abigail and Jonathan; a grandson, Nolan; and a rescue puppy, Daisy. They love to garden, take daily walks, and travel — most recently to France and Spain.
