Bishop of Washington

We ask your prayers for the friends and family of The Rev. Jack White, who served as the Associate Rector for St. Thomas', from 1968 - 1974. Jack died on Tuesday, October 21st. He had been living in Turkey for several years. Jack's M.Div. was from CDSP in Berkeley and was ordained a priest in in 1955 by Bishop Arthur C. Lichtenberger. Jack's passion for ministry was expressed both in the parish as well as the secular world, including the Red Cross. We thank him for a long and faithful ministry.
