Meet our Rector
The Reverend Paul S. Winton
On November 2, 2009, St. John's Rector Search Committee presented to the Vestry their candidate of choice. The Vestry, after appropriate consideration and discussion, took the next step of bringing the candidate to Charlotte so we could get to know him. Over the course of several days and many hours in various settings, we asked and answered questions (yes, he had a few of his own for us!), he led us in Evening Prayers and gave a short Homily, we explored areas of mutual ministry, we compared his experience to the needs of St. John’s and we shared your hopes and dreams for what St. John’s wants to look like as a body of Christ. The outcome was a unanimous vote to call the Reverend Paul S. Winton to be our next Rector.
Father Paul, came to us on January 24, 2010 from St. David’s Episcopal Church in Roswell, GA. He had served as St. David’s Rector for eight years and they will miss him greatly. So that we could get to know him a little before his arrival, Father Paul authored an informal profile of himself that we believe you will enjoy.
