A native of Pensacola, Florida, John is a recent graduate of Nashotah House Theological Seminary, and was ordained into the priesthood by The Right Reverend Keith Ackerman. John brings a range of experience to his work with St. Peter's, but most importantly, he has pastored young people from high school age to college and beyond. His musical gifts and the six years he spent with the Christian music group "Dog Named David" make him uniquely qualified to lead Veritas, our Sunday evening contemporary worship service at St. Peter's. John and his wife, Ashley have three children: Gray (5), Meg (3) and William (2).
