Our Rector
The Rev. Richard L. Jones was born and raised in St. Louis, MO until moving to Tulsa in 1998. In 1984 Fr. Jones experienced a sovereign visitation by our Lord Jesus Christ which set him on a unique spiritual journey.

He was first ordained as a Minister in 1998, and in 2013 he was ordained to the Anglican Priesthood in the Province of Communio Christiana. Earlier, in 2007, he originally planted a new non-denomination church in Tulsa called The Uprising, which converted to the Anglican Way in 2012. In 2017 he was received into the Order of Saint John the Beloved, a 3rd order Franciscan monastic order. By 2018 Fr. Jones was assigned the role of Abbot of Tulsa and Eastern Oklahoma. In 2021, after being asked, he was moved by the Holy Spirit to enter the Reformed Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Mid-America.
