The Rev. Canon Caleb J. Lee Called to St. Paul’s

The Reverend Canon Caleb J. Lee was called to St. Paul’s in May of 2021. His ministry will begin on August 1, 2021.

“I am fascinated by your rich and diverse history. In particular, I am inspired by the last decade of your common life, where it seems you have grown into something new. I am drawn to your fine liturgy and music and look forward to building upon the solid foundation that has been laid. Speaking of building, I am ready to discern with you about the future of your building as well as seek new opportunities for formation of all ages and outreach to the community.”

He comes to us from Grace Church Cathedral in Charleston, S.C., where he serves as Canon Precentor and is currently the President of the Standing Committee of the Diocese of South Carolina. Before his work in South Carolina, Caleb served as a Priest Associate at St. Paul’s in Beaufort, N.C.

Transition

In the transition between the departure of St. Paul’s clergy on May 31 and the arrival of the Rev. Canon Caleb Lee on Aug. 1, supply clergy will be serving at both Sunday Eucharists. Louise Buck has been hired temporarily for part time office work.

She, along with Diane Matz Kane, our financial officer, are providing morning office hours, Monday-Thursday. In case of a pastoral need or emergency, please contact me at 252.268.1547 or teresabsinger@gmail.com. I have secured local supply clergy to minister to these needs in the absence of full-time clergy.

God loves us. God will keep us, even if and when things look and feel different than they did before. And “all shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.”

Be the light!
Teresa B. Singer, Senior Warden

The Rev. Richard Banks

Priest Associate

“To be a fellow sojourner in a community of faith,” is how the Rev. Richard Banks, priest associate, defines the purpose of his ministry. “Most people regard priests as ‘finished products’ but we clergy know that we continue to grow in knowledge and faith through the weekly cycle of prayer, preparation for worship including preaching, and translating faith into works as we seek to minister to those in need.”
