St. Timothy’s on the Hill Calls a New Rector
St. Timothy’ s on the Hill Episcopal Church in Fairfield is happy to announce the arrival of its new rector. The Reverend Kevin O. Olds began his ministry on February 26, 2017, and will serve as the fifth rector of the church. Fr. Olds comes to St. Timothy’s from St. John’s Episcopal Church in Saugus, Massachusetts, where he had served as the rector since 2010. Fr. Olds grew up in the Syracuse, NY area, is a former computer programmer, and a lifelong fan of the Syracuse Orange and the Minnesota Vikings. He received his Master of Divinity degree from Drew University in Madison, NJ in 2008 and his Master of Sacred Theology degree from General Seminary in New York City in 2010. Fr. Olds and his wife Jill, have two sons, Zack (4) and Tommy (1).
Fr. Olds’ start at St. Timothy’s coincided with the start of the Lenten season - a busy time in the halls of any Christian house of worship. As he unpacks yet another box in his office, he reflects upon what it means to be taking on his new role:
St. Timothy’s, located at 4670 Congress Street, deep in the heart of Fairfield’s Greenfield Hill section, is member of the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion. The church was established in 1968 on 9 acres of land donated by then-state senator, Stewart B. McKinney and his wife, Lucy. The property backs up to the CT Audubon’s Larsen Sanctuary and is home the newly established Harbor Light Preschool Academy.
The service hours are Sundays and 8am and 10am. All are welcome!
