The Rev'd Brook Batchelor
Rector
Brook is a grateful husband, proud father of three, and doting grandfather of two. He began lay ministry in the Episcopal Church after being born again on a Happening retreat (similar to Dynamos) and was later filled with the Holy Spirit. In the mid-90s he was called to the Vineyard Church, serving for 10 years as both a worship leader and as a church-planting pastor. In 2003, Brook was called back home to the Anglican Church, and was ordained to the priesthood while serving at Holy Cross Cathedral in Loganville, GA. In 2013, Brook, his wife Dawn, and their three daughters moved to Jacksonville when he was called to be the Rector of All Souls Anglican Church.
Brook also serves on the Board of SOMA USA, a mission to the Anglican Church worldwide, and wants to take as many as will come to Israel to discover the roots of our faith in Jesus.
The Rev'd Cn. Christopher Jones
Assoc. Rector for Next Generation
fr. Christopher is a son, brother, uncle, mentor, and community builder—an advocate for the marginalized and, above all, a follower of Jesus Christ. Raised in Brooklyn, he has preached the Gospel of the Kingdom across the United States and internationally, including in Singapore, Indonesia, and Myanmar.
He earned his first master’s degree from the University of Pittsburgh, where he discerned a renewed call to ordained ministry. After a brief season in the corporate world, he attended Trinity Anglican Seminary and completed a Master of Divinity with an emphasis in evangelism and church planting. He was then called to Florida, where he helped plant a church in a historically Black, entrepreneurial neighborhood that had fallen on hard times—a work that bore lasting Kingdom fruit.
fr. Christopher is currently pursuing a Ph.D. at Duquesne University in Sacred Rhetoric. In his free time, he enjoys spending time with family and friends, skeet shooting, and hanging out with his 6-year-old boy, Butch (the dog).
