Steve Pankey
I first learned of unabashed church nerdery as the VTS student representative to the 75th General Convention. In my ministry, I seek to embody the Way of Love that Jesus showed us, and I love seeing how God’s mission, effective leadership, good governance, and the Holy Spirit all work together to move us along that path. I’ve served The Episcopal Church as a member of Executive Council, part of the PHoD’s Council of Advice, on a Standing Commission and task force, in diocesan leadership positions, as a parish priest, and a lay youth minister. My particular areas of experience are evangelism, congregational development, Title IV revision, and structure. I love exploring processes and working with others to find ways to make systems more effective in reaching our ministry goals and more efficient stewards of our time and resources. I hope to serve as Vice President of the House of Deputies to support the diverse ministries of our deputies and the visionary leadership of our President.
