Our Clergy
The Rev. John R. Kirkman,
priest at St. Paul's, has served this parish for more than six years.
His full time job is Chaplain of Heartland Hospice of Grand Rapids;
however, he provides pastoral care in Greenville at least twice each week
to members and friends of the parish. He holds bachelor's and master's
degrees from Western Michigan University and a master's from
Colgate-Rochester Divinity School. He has been a priest of the Episcopal
Church for more than thirty years, and has served parishes in Maine,
Massachusetts and Western Michigan. He is married to Sherry, a teacher
in Grand Rapids, and they share five grown children. Father John's
special interests include music, the special needs of sick and dying
persons, and small church ministry. He will be glad to meet with any
persons interested in ways the Episcopal Church might meet personal or
family spiritual needs.
The Rev. David Meyers was ordained to the Permanent Diaconate in 1986. Since that time, he has assisted the
priests at St. Paul's. He also has
worked for the diocese in Parish Support and Development, the Diocesan
Consulting Team, the Ecclesiastical Court, the Total Ministry Task Force,
and child abuse awareness training. Living in Greenville, David has worked
as a psychologist for the area schools and courts. His wife, Merry Kim, is
a landscape architect who teaches horticulture to area youth. Together,
they have two daughters.
