Dr. Paul Walter

Paul Walter has been the rector of Church of the Resurrection since October of 2004. Prior to this, he was the rector of Good Shepherd Episcopal Church from August of 1996. Paul grew up in Colorado and after graduating from Yale with a degree in History, he became a successful international businessman living in the United States and abroad. In 1972, Paul and his wife Susan lost their third child while living in Tehran Iran, and it was through a Christian couple who befriended them during this time of grief and loneliness that they came to know and believe in Jesus. During the next four years, Paul began to sense a call to ministry and in 1976 he entered Oxford University and obtained a Masters in Theology.

After his graduation, Paul was ordained in the Episcopal church and has ministered since that time in a number of locations in the United States. His heart has always been in missions, however, and he has served in a number of high profile positions in addition to earning his Doctor of Missiology degree from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Paul met his wife, Susan Goddard, in a choir in New York City. They have been married over forty years and have three adult children. Daughter Carolyn is a senior producer near Atlanta, Georgia. Son Matthew, who is married and has six children, has served as an Anglican missionary in Amman, Jordan and is now an associate priest in Ocala Florida. Son Peter is a businessman in Charlotte, North Carolina. Susan, who is now retired from her career as a veterinarian, forms an essential part of Paul's ministry
