Engaging Our LIteral Neighbors

We are honored to have the Rev. Derek Miller, Rector of St. Peter's Church in Ellicott City, MD with us. Derek talks with us about what it means to be a "co-vocational" priest, and the work he is doing with the Ellicott City Partnership. He encourages us to re-engage with our literal neighbors, people outside the walls of our churches.

Derek is the Rector at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Old Ellicott City and the Main Street Coordinator for the Ellicott City Partnership. Person, Partner, Parent, Priest, Place-maker. I live in OEC with my wife, Kara and my three-year old son, Easton and I love to accumulate (and sometimes read) books, drink craft-made beverages, and play music at open mics. (let me know if you need other info)

Listening for Clues is pleased to present our new series, "Good News!" featuring weekly conversations with people who are making a difference, large or small. We want everyone to know what they are doing, why they are doing it, and how. So, our listeners and viewers can experience the good news and go out and make a difference themselves.

Listening for Clues invites you into conversations that discover clues, rather than solutions to life’s problems. Join the journey with Jon Shematek and Lauren Welch, Episcopal deacons, as we explore whatever lies ahead. Check our website Listening for Clues.
