Bio

The Rev. Jered Weber Johnson was called to St. John’s, St. Paul, MN to be the Rector in the spring of 2011 – and as he describes it, coming to St. John’s was like “coming home.”  As the priest in charge of the parish, Jered oversees the operations of the church, the staff, the finances, and fundraising, as well as the spiritual life and care of the congregation.  Jered also preaches regularly, teaches, celebrates the Eucharist and presides at other worship along with our associate rector, does regular pastoral care, and chairs vestry, the lay governing board of the parish.

Before moving to Minnesota, Jered served at St. Alban’s Episcopal Church, which is located close to the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.  Previously, Jered also served at St. Paul’s Chapel at Ground Zero and Trinity Wall Street in New York City.  While in New York he received his Master of Divinity from The General Theological Seminary.  Jered and his wife Erin were sponsored by the Episcopal Diocese of Olympia in western Washington, to serve as missionaries with the Episcopal Church’s Young Adult Service Corp in northern Taiwan.
