Father Bill is the Rector, Priest, and Pastor at Epiphany Anglican Church.
A Rector is the Priest in charge of a parish, responsible for the spiritual and administrative leadership of the congregation. They oversee worship, manage church resources, and guide the parish’s overall direction. Essentially, the Rector is the primary leader and shepherd of the local church community.
A Priest serves as a representative of Christ and his Church, responsible for proclaiming the Gospel, administering sacraments like Baptism and the Eucharist, blessing the congregation, and declaring God’s pardon in the name of God.
A Pastor offers spiritual guidance and support during times of joy and sorrow, and fosters a sense of community within the church and for the broader community.
