Rector
The Rev. Sean Wall
The Wall family came to St. Barnabas in December of 2013 and it has been a joyful experience for us.
I grew up in Idaho, where I graduated from the University of Idaho and then commenced on a twenty-year career in the United States Navy. While in the Navy, I served as an F-14 Tomcat Radar Intercept Officer and in several staff positions. Following my retirement in 2009, I completed a Master of Divinity degree from the Church Divinity School of the Pacific and started my ordained ministry in July of 2013.
My wife, Melissa, and I met at an Episcopal Church youth event when we were in high school and she has been stuck with me ever since. We are rapidly approaching our thirtieth wedding anniversary and looking forward to an empty nest. We have four children (plus a son-in-law and a grandson), but we are down to just one kid at home. Sure, we love him, but we are still counting down….
I often say that I am grateful that I got to be in the Navy, and I have now added that I am grateful that I get to be the priest at St. Barnabas. It is an amazing gift to work among such wonderful and faithful people.
