Our Clergy

THE REV. BRUCE A. WHITE, Rector
After 25 years in data processing for a variety of manufacturing, newspaper, and soft-drink companies, and after his five sons were either in or through college, Fr. Bruce White answered God’s call to ordained ministry. A native of Iowa, he received his M.Div. degree from the University of the South (Sewanee) in 1998. After serving Christ Episcopal Church in Bowling Green, Kentucky, where he also had responsibilities for campus ministry at Western Kentucky University, he was called to be Rector of St. Michael and All Angels in Anniston, Alabama. Fr. White has been at St. Alban’s Episcopal Church since 2011. He enjoys preaching, teaching, and mentoring an Education for Ministry group, as well as just getting to know everyone. He is the Diocesan Coordinator of Education for Ministry and is President of the Standing Committee for the Diocese of Arizona. In his “off” time, he enjoys reading, golf, and traveling with wife Pam.
