As the Archdeacon for Discernment in the Diocese of Atlanta, I have many years of experience in the process of discerning God's call to individuals and the Church. I am a long time member of our Commission on Ministry and am now a permanent ex officio member. It is a great joy to me to help identify with people their call to service. Before ordination, I also served as a Search Chair for parish during a particularly challenging time for us. Our founding rector had a sudden health crisis that required his immediate retirement during a turmoil laden time in the wider Church. I found that non-anxious leadership would be essential to our success and did my best to provide it. The next rector was a very good fit and stayed for over a decade. Finally, in my professional life as a non-profit executive, I have had a lot of experience with project management as well as Human Resources.
