The Episcopal Diocese of West Tennessee joins St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Jackson in welcoming the Rev. Jesse Perkins as their next rector. Fr. Jesse, along with his wife, Katy, and their sons, Gaius and Atticus, will join the St. Luke’s community this summer. His first Sunday at St. Luke’s will be July 6, 2025.
Fr. Jesse comes to St. Luke’s with a deep love for Anglican worship and music, a passion for welcoming those seeking a renewed faith, and a strong commitment to community outreach. His journey to the Episcopal Church was shaped by a desire for a faith tradition that embraces both ancient liturgy and a spirit of hospitality—qualities that resonate deeply with the St. Luke’s community.
During his interview process, Fr. Jesse and his family experienced the warmth and welcome that make St. Luke’s such a special place. He looks forward to walking alongside the congregation as they continue their mission of worship, fellowship, and service in Jackson.
