Div. from the College of Emmanuel and St. Chad, Saskatoon, SK, in 1981. He was ordained as a deacon and priest in the Anglican Church of Canada. David spent the first half of his ordained parish ministry in his native Ontario. In these years, through many very early mornings, he completed both a Th.M. on police stress, a M.Ed. on pre-marriage education at Queen's University, Kingston, and additional clinical training while fully engaged in parish ministry. He spent much time in the community as a police, fire, and hospital chaplain. He was also a volunteer fire fighter.In 1999, he became the rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Philipsburg, PA,* along with the Chapel of the Good Shepherd, Hawk Run. At this time, he completed his D. Min. in educating clergy in local settings. In 2005, while remaining in the Diocese of Central Pennsylvania, he accepted the call as the rector of St. Andrew's York, PA, where he remained upon retirement. David is an honorary Canon of St. Stephen's Cathedral, Harrisburg. Today, he assists at Christ Church Anglican, Belleville, where he began his ordained ministry and met his wife, Lynn. Their son John and family live nearby.This book clearly shows his love of reading and reflection! He enjoys gardening because it soothes the spirit and cannot be tackled quickly.* This was the first church in the USA to have electric lights; however, the DC current proved very noisy, and the lights were removed two years after installation. PS, this was long before my time.view less
