Welcome Matthew Reese

Saint Philip’s is excited to welcome Matthew Reese. He began work on Thursday, August 1, and will be at church this Sunday, August 4.

And save the date for his ordination to the priesthood. Matthew will be ordained by The Rt. Rev’d Jennifer A. Reddall at 11:00am on Saturday, August 10, at Saint Philip’s. A reception will follow in the Murphey Gallery.

It is a joy and privilege to participate in the ordination of clergy who take lifelong vows. Your presence at Matthew’s ordination is an important part of Christian community; it demonstrates your support of his calling and represents our collective fellowship.

Please extend a generous welcome to Matthew on one of these two special days and join staff in thanks to God for his ministry that will unfold throughout his life, and in particular at Saint Philip’s as Curate.

If you would like to help with the potluck reception, please contact Ana Nygren.
