Assisting Campus Minister

619-800-5546

Greg (he/him) first experienced Agape's radical welcome as a student and now, after 25 years of professional lay ministry within the Episcopal Church, is an excited member of the Agape team. Seeing Agape's response during COVID-19, Greg began telling our stories through online videos and communications within faith communities in Southern California.  Today, he connects with cultural resource centers and religious communities on and off of both campuses.  Greg's passion for a ministry of presence can be seen on the grass outside our Hardy Ave property at SDSU each Wednesday for lunch and at the Center for Ethics and Spirituality at UCSD each Thursday for lunch.
