We are pleased that Reverend Will Scott will be with St. Anselm's through the month of January (and beyond, pending mutual agreement).
Below is his message of greeting to the congregation:
Dear St. Anselm's,
Happy New Year! I am so grateful to be joining you this month as your long-term supply priest. I very much enjoyed my first visit with you on Sunday, December 3rd. My husband Matt and I moved to the Bay Area 17 years ago having met in Washington, DC during my last year at Virginia Theological Seminary.
I have served as Associate Pastor at Grace Cathedral, Vicar at St. Cyprian's, Program Director at California Interfaith Power & Light, in development and alumni/ae relations at Pacific School of Religion and most recently as Associate Rector at Christ Church, Alameda. I am a strong believer in the value of congregational life for people of all ages, and look forward to learning from each of you how St. Anselm's has made a difference in your journey and wider community.
As this new year begins may we each give our hearts to Christ and to the shared work of nurturing a community at St. Anselm's that is magnetic, inclusive, and liberating that helps us chart new pathways home.
See you soon!
Peace,
Will
