The Rev. Todd FitzGerald
Todd began his ministry as St. John’s priest in charge in August 2021, and was called as rector in May 2024. After growing up in Louisiana and attending college in Texas, Todd studied for the ordained ministry at Seabury-Western Theological Seminary on the north shore of Chicago. Upon completing divinity school, he and his wife Amy returned to Texas, where he served in a large downtown parish in Austin. Feeling a call to share the Gospel outside the traditional parish setting, Todd went on to serve as chaplain at an Episcopal day school in Austin, and two Episcopal boarding schools, one in Maryland and one back in Austin. In his chaplain role, he led worship, did pastoral care, developed programs, taught history and religion classes, and developed his leadership and management skills. Todd’s real passion is ministry among disciples of Jesus, and he is extremely excited to work alongside the people of St. John’s parish as we worship God, form disciples of Jesus, and share Christ’s love with each other and our neighbors. Todd and Amy have two daughters. The Rev. Margie Baker
Margie began her ordained ministry at St. John’s in 2019 after a career in public education. While studying at Virginia Theological Seminary, Margie served as seminarian intern at St. Columba Episcopal Church in Washington, DC. She has a passion for preaching and teaching. In her free time, Margie enjoys running, reading, and spending time (especially outdoors) with her wife and two children. In addition to preaching; providing pastoral care; and helping to plan and oversee worship and ministries, Margie has primary responsibility for programs and education for children and youth.
