Please pray for our Church leadership
Fr. John Roberts began as Transfiguration’s Pastor at the end of 2023. He and his family are so glad to be part of this church community! Fr. John was ordained in 2017, and has been working within the Episcopal Church since 2009. Before coming to Transfiguration, he served as a youth minister, parish formation director, assistant priest, and school chaplain. Fr. John is invested in the life of the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina, and has served as the Board Chair for our diocesan retreat center and camp at Lake Logan, and a member of the Blue Ridge Service Corps board. John and his wife Hannah Marie, along with their two young children, live in nearby Black Mountain, NC. Originally from Ohio, and after attending seminary in Grand Rapids, MI and Sewanee, TN, the mountains of Western North Carolina are now home.
