Speaker
Canon Mark Eldredge was born near Buffalo, NY but grew up in Palm Coast, FL. He received his Bachelor of Science from Florida State University and his Master of Divinity from Trinity School for Ministry in Ambridge, PA. After serving as an Associate Priest for three years at an Episcopal Church in Midland, TX, Mark moved to Jacksonville to be the Senior Pastor of Epiphany Episcopal Church. While leading that church through revitalization, he also moved the church into what has become the Anglican Church of North America. After 14 years in that church, Mark is now the Director of Church Revitalization for the American Anglican Council serving the Anglican Church in North America by helping local congregations better fulfill the Great Commission in our times. He also serves a similar role as the Canon for Congregational Health for the Gulf Atlantic Diocese based in Jacksonville, FL. Mark is married to his best friend, Ame, has three children from 26 to 16, and one grandson.

Chris Sieggens and his wife Britta were involved with an Anglican Church plant in Kansas City for fourteen years. Chris was on staff as the worship leader and office administrator. Over the last couple of years, he also had the opportunity to work for Bishop Todd Hunter in the Diocese of Churches for the Sake of Others as his Chief Administrator and as an interim worship leader and audio engineer at Christ Church Anglican in Overland Park, KS. When the opportunity arose to come to Athens, Georgia, Chris was also discerning a call to go to seminary and pursue ordination. Through a mutual discernment process with Fr. Daniel Adkinson and from supporters in Kansas City, the Sieggens felt God was calling them to move to Athens to become a part of St. Thomas (part-time) and to begin the Masters of Divinity program at Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC. Through God’s grace and provision, the Sieggens arrived in Athens in Dec. 2017 and are excited to be a part of the amazing things God is doing through St. Thomas. They love good music, food, warm weather and laughter and vibrant relationships!
