Hugh Halsey

VIII Olympia

I have a broad background of experience both in my work and in my membership of The Episcopal Church. I have been an active member in four different diocese and many different churches. I hold an MA in Christian Formation from Virginia Theological Seminary. I have a prophetic call and believe in speaking truth to power. Our church is in the midst of a radical change. I believe that we have an opportunity to transform into a liberation focused justice oriented organization serving God and the people. However, if we choose to do nothing, our church will still be transformed into something unrecognizable within my lifetime. Even if I am not selected to serve I hope that young people are being cultivated into these positions. If we do not lift up our younger parishioners who can we expect to lead us in the years to come, and continue our work and traditions? Thank you, be well, God bless.
