James, CRC
James was ordained as a (transitional) Deacon
in January, 2008, James now serves as Vicar of St. Matthew's Episcopal Church,
Covington, Tennessee. James is a member of the Emmaus chapter, and has served
as Companion in Charge.
James' process of education and formation for
ordained ministry included receiving a Masters of Divinity degree from Memphis
Theological Seminary and A Certificate of Theological Studies from The
University of the South School of Theology, Sewanee, TN. James is in the
process of working on his Doctor of Ministry degree during the summers in
Sewanee.
James writes, "The rule and my relationship
with Patti have been my containers as I attempt to deal with the changes in
our lives. Patti and I begin most days doing Morning Prayer together and it
is obvious on the days that something takes over and we do not get to pray
together. Our chapter meetings provide a place for me to unload when
necessary and learn about living in community."
