Everyone is Welcome

Meet Our Interim Rector

The Rev'd W. Merritt Greenwood has accepted the call as Interim Rector of St. John’s Petaluma and will begin August 16, 2024. Rev’d Merritt comes to us from Trinity-Folsom.

Ordained in 1982, he has served parishes in eight Episcopal Church dioceses. He responded to the call to intentional interim ministry in 2000 and has led nine congregations through the interim journey. All of these have been occasions of joy as the communities have discerned their unique call to mission and ministry in a wide variety of settings.

Merritt is a graduate of Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio, and Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
