Kempton Jackson - Rector
Hi, I’m Kempton. I am (mostly) a native New Mexican. I was born on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona but grew up most of my life in Gallup, NM. My wife, a very proud native New Mexican, Carissa, and I have been married nearly seven years and we have three wonderful children, Yiska, Yanabah, and Thaddeus. Carissa and I met in college at Western New Mexico University where we majored in kinesiology. I thought I would one day be a physical therapist, but God had other plans. Carissa became a physical therapist and I have become a pastor. I finished my MDiv at Denver Seminary in 2018. After seven years in Denver and years of discerning both ordination in the Anglican church and church planting, God called us back to the Land of Enchantment to plant Resurrection Anglican. This ministry is a gift, and I am grateful for God’s incredible faithfulness thus far. I am also expectant of what the Holy Spirit will do in lives in coming years because of what has already been done by Jesus! I hope you and I can meet soon!
Feel free to contact me at kempton@rezsantafe.com.
KAYLA PARKER - ADMINISTRATOR
I have the wonderful fortune of serving as Rez’s administrator! My husband Michael and I hail from Chicago, where we fell in love with the Anglican tradition (and each other). We both are proud graduates of Moody Bible Institute and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. These days, I split my work hours between Rez and serving college students in Santa Fe with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. You can reach me at kayla@rezsantafe.com.
JESSIE GAC - WORSHIP LEADER
Hello, Jessie here! I love leading at Rez: helping people recognize, respond to, and rely on God! I've been doing music, mostly church music, my whole life- in my hometown of Los Alamos, at Wheaton College, and in Nairobi, Kenya. I've also been a math teacher or school administrator in all those places, and I'm delighted to now call Santa Fe home. I live on the Southside with my 2 large dogs, and in addition to supporting Rez's music, I work at Mandela International Magnet School. I'm delighted to be a part of this church plant and am excited about what God will continue to do through Rez! Hope to see you soon!
