Kelly’s love for Jesus, and all things Church, started before she can remember.  Her liturgical formation began in a big children’s choir at All Souls’ Episcopal Church, in Oklahoma City.  She majored in Japanese at the University of Kansas, and spent a year teaching in an Anglican school and orphanage in Osaka, Japan.  But her best adventure yet, began when she went to seminary and met Austin native, Nathan Jennings, who was the only one wearing cowboy boots at Yale Divinity School in 1998.  They were married in 2000.

She was ordained in 2004, and both of them came to Austin in 2005, where Nathan has served at the Seminary of the Southwest, as Associate Professor of Liturgics and Anglican Studies.  They have two children, Vitaly and Maria, who reveal every day to them God’s grace and love.

Mother Kelly has served as a priest in Virginia, at St. James in Taylor, TX, and most recently as family minister at Resurrection, Austin, where she established a Catechesis of the Good Shepherd formation program for children.  She is a trained catechist in this program for Levels I through III, covering ages 3-12.

I am a cradle Episcopalian. I was raised in an Episcopal church in Arlington, Virginia. I was an acolyte until college and served on Vestry twice after college including serving as Senior Warden and Junior Warden. In addition, I was Property Manager for more than ten years and Project Manager for design and construction of a large exterior renovation project of the church's entrances. We relocated to Round Rock 18 years ago for professional reasons. We initially joined St. Paul's Pflugerville where I served on the Bishop's Committee and as Bishop's Warden. We transferred to St. Richard's about 10 years ago. Professionally, I am a registered Professional Engineer and worked for the Federal Highway Administration as a Highway (Civil) Engineer, retiring in 2013 after 35 years of service. I now work part time for the Texas Division of Emergency Management doing storm damage assessments and other repair project design reviews around the State. I have been married to Susan for 21 years and are proud parents to a rescue fur baby.

Justin was born in Whitefish, Montana, but soon moved to the Washington DC area.  In 1983 his family moved to the Round Rock area when his dad was transferred for his job.  Justin attended Westwood High School and then received his Bachelors degree from the University of Texas at Austin.  

Justin met the love of his life in October of 2001 and married Amy in 2004.  Raised a Lutheran and his new wife being Catholic, they stared to search for a compromise denomination.  They went to a Kelly Willis concert at St. David’s Episcopal in downtown Austin and fell in love with the space.  They soon started attending services and became very active.  Justin oversaw the Men’s Group and Amy ran the Friday Morning Moms.  

After having two beautiful daughters, the trek to downtown Austin became too much.  They started attending St. Richards in 2014 and haven’t looked back.

Born and raised in Houston, Texas. I am a third generation Houstonian. Lived most of my life in Houston. I grew up in the episcopal church, Christ Church Cathedral, with my two sisters Mother and Father.

I am a graduate of the University of Texas in Austin, where I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Architecture. Upon graduating returned to Houston to work. I also married Mark Stites and have two children, a son and daughter. 

In the mid 80’s left Houston and moved to Charlotte, North Carolina as a job transfer. Five years later, another job transfer took us to Maryland/DC area. After relocating, decided to pursue a career change and applied to the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) in Hydepark, NY. I received a Certification as a Chef. Returned to Maryland to pursue my new career in the Hotel Restaurant Industry.

Lived in Maryland for some 20 years with my family, loving cooking and raising and training and showing American Saddlebred Horses. 

Upon my husband’s retirement from Sherwin Williams Paint Co. and my retirement from the University of Maryland Medical Center, Food Service Department, we decided to move back to Texas to be close to our son and daughter and our eight grandchildren.

We found ourselves in the Round Rock / Georgetown area. We have a beautiful 112 acre ranch where we have our horses and have started raising Black Angus cattle. 

Upon moving back to Texas we looked around to find an Episcopal church. The red doors drew us in and we found a wonderful church family. I love being a part of the church as a member of the Alter Guild and in serving my Lord in preparing wonderful food in the parish kitchen for the Parish.
