The Reverend Deacon Shane Taylor
Serves as the Deacon for our Parish. He was raised in the Tulsa area with a strong Christian background. He always looked to grow and develop his faith. Through his journey, he has found the great depth and reverence that is the Anglican tradition.
Their family started attending the Anglican Church of the Holy Spirit eight years ago. After his wife, Julie, and he went through the Anglican Catechism and were Confirmed he started to hear God’s call for a great sacrifice of service. Through the church discernment process over several years, he was finally ordained a Deacon in the Anglican Church in January of 2021.
He serves our congregation in many ways. He works alongside Father Carl Eyberg to choose the music for each service. He then serves with our amazing music ministry for each service to lead us in Worship. He also works with our Adults and Youth in leading Catechism and other Christian Education classes. Throughout the year he with Father Carl visit members of our Parish to minister to and take communion. He works each week to make sure our church buildings are clean and ready for our Worship and activities.
Vestry
The Vestry is composed of elected lay members and ordained presbyters of Anglican Church of the Holy Spirit. The Vestry governs the administrative affairs of the local church — hiring, space, budget, to list a few — and provides advice and counsel to the Rector and clergy on the direction of the church’s ministry.
Continually seeking God’s teachings and guidance, Joy and her family became members of The Anglican Church of the Holy Spirit in 2012 and found a parish home that nurtures acceptance and creates space for personal growth. Her husband of 22 years, Frank, previously served on the Vestry and maintains roles as chalice bearer and usher. Their daughter, Anna, is a freshman at the University of Oklahoma and during school breaks, is employed as an intern in the church office and serves in the nursery and has arranged flowers for the altar. Joy serves as a lector and serves in the nursery as well.
Joy education includes a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and a Master’s degree in Human Relations. She has worked more than 30 years with a diverse population and in a variety of settings including law enforcement, community behavioral health, and institutional settings. Embarking in a new chapter as a Licensed Professional Counselor, Joy recently opened a private practice – Coffman Wellness – providing personalized therapy for adults dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, grief, and life transitions.
