Nominee for the Priesthood

​

Egan came to Grace Church in the summer of 2023 and served as the Ministry Fellow until 2025. He is now a Nominee for ordination to the priesthood sponsored by Grace Church.

 

Before the start of his ministry at Grace Church, he completed an year of service with the Episcopal Service Corps: living in intentional community with four other young adults, volunteering with local organizations, and serving as an acolyte and Vestry member. In his capacity as Ministry Fellow, Egan coordinated our parish's volunteers, served at the weekday and Sunday Masses, oversaw the Food Ministry's weekly grocery distribution, dabbled in social media and communications, and learned a lot about church property management during his time here. The best part of his week was getting to know new visitors and catching up with familiar faces at our unbeatable coffee hour. As a volunteer member of the parish he continues to assist with social media and communications among other ministries.

 

Egan holds a bachelor's degree in English from Bryn Mawr College, with a focus on Film Studies. He wrote his thesis on two contemporary horror movies. In his spare time, he continues to enjoy watching new films (horror and not) and creating linocut prints. Grace Church introduced him to the art of Gregorian chant, which he has now taken up as a prayerful practice and pastime. Pray that his voice not offend any ears.
