From The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette-The largest congregation in the Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh has tapped an Arkansas cathedral pastor for its next rector.
Calvary Episcopal Church announced Thursday the appointment of The Very Rev. Jonathon Wesley Jensen to be its rector. He has been dean of Trinity Episcopal Cathedral in Little Rock, Ark., since 2009.
Rev. Jensen, 42, is slated to start Feb. 1, 2014, in Pittsburgh.
Rev. Jensen is an "inordinately good listener and a caring and warm person," said Joseph D.C. Wilson III, senior warden at Calvary. While the church has a long history of urban ministry, it is looking to redouble such efforts after years in which internal matters in the denomination have commanded much of the church's attention.
