Canon Theologian . Bishop Mark Bourlakas has asked me to serve as Canon Theologian for the Diocese of Southwestern Virginia. As Canon Theologian I will explore topics of thinking about God in mission in papers that will be circulated around the diocese and made available for reading and discussion in parishes. I will from time to time offer classes and workshops on elements of our theological tradition and how they can guide our present mission. And I will be available for questions about specific things that may come up as parishes reflect on where you see God at work and long to join God in working. This new role brings together several things I’ve already been doing in the diocese, and will coexist with my principal role as Trinity’s rector. For more about this role, see this article on the parish website. Fr. Paul
