The Rev. Parker Williams
Assistant Rector, Liturgy & Worship
Office: 214-217-5637
Fr. Parker Williams serves as Assistant Rector, Liturgy & Worship at Church of the Incarnation. He has particular interests in Anglican spirituality, pastoral theology, and the ways the Church’s worship forms Christians for lives of holiness and service.
A fifth generation “son of the soil" from southeast Missouri, Parker followed an unconventional path to ordained ministry. After college, he returned to his family’s agribusiness, later co-founding several businesses and working with his family on land conservation, ecological restoration, and natural-resource projects. These experiences continue to shape his interest in the relationship between Christian faith, human formation, and the care of creation.
Parker earned a Bachelor of Biblical Literature, with a specialization in Psychology and Counselling, from Ozark Christian College; a Master of Arts in Theology and Anglican Studies from Fuller Theological Seminary; and an MTh in Applied Theology from the University of Oxford. Before coming to Incarnation, he served as Assistant Chaplain at Pusey House in Oxford, England, a center of Anglican worship and theological study.
