John and his wife, Tait, enjoy spending time exploring Capitol Hill with their sons, Alec and Hoke. John envisions Christ Church as a community known for its radical welcome — where people of all races, ages, incomes, sexual orientations and political leanings gather around the same table. He believes running is a spiritual practice and would love to talk to you about the New Orleans Saints.
Prior to becoming Rector of Christ Church, John worked for the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana. He attended The General Theological Seminary and Millsaps College.
John is the 29th Rector of Christ Church + Washington Parish and serves as the Dean of the South DC Region of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington. You can reach John at rector@washingtonparish.org.
