The Rev. Andrew Downs, M.Div
Rector/Pastor
The Rev. Andrew (Drew) Downs was ordained to the priesthood in the Diocese of Eastern Michigan in May 2008 by the Rt. Rev. S. Todd Ousley.
Drew, a life-long Episcopalian and PK (priest’s kid), was called to holy orders after a brief career in retail management and community service through AmeriCorps and Habitat for Humanity. He attended Huron University College and was ordained a transitional deacon in 2007. He served congregations in Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, and Atlanta. He and his spouse, Rose, have two children.
He believes that creativity is an underutilized spiritual discipline and is a necessary complement to commitment for those seeking a mature faith. Drew enjoys blogging, listening to podcasts, and pub theology.
