Acknowledging our Relationship with Indigenous People of the Land


We acknowledge and pay respect to the Yavapai, Hualapai, Havasupai, Apache, Hopi, Navajo, and Ancient Peoples as the original inhabitants of the land and their role as custodians of this land given to them by our one and only Creator God. We commit ourselves to actively work alongside indigenous people for reconciliation and justice as we live into our Baptismal Covenant and respect the dignity of every person.

Welcome our new Priest in Charge Effective September 1st

 

Wonderful news! Our own seminarian, The Rev. Vincent Caranchini, was unanimously selected by your Vestry upon recommendation by the Search Committee to serve as our permanent priest in charge and eventual Rector.  Bishop Reddall enthusiastically concurs with our  choice. This decision was announced on Sunday, January 26th at our Annual Meeting.

We all ready know Vincent as a man of deep faith, wisdom, and artistic talent.  And we look forward to the energy and creativity he will bring to our parish in his new role.

More good news! Through the support of his seminary, the Church Divinity School of the Pacific, and Trinity Church Wall Street, much of Vincent’s salary will be covered for two years, allowing the parish to built up our own resources to the point we can pay him full time.

Vincent will take over his responsibilities on September 1st and serve his first year part-time at St Andrew’s and remain at NAU, where he will continue as a professor in the Art Department.

Until Sept 1, Bishop Smith and the rest of the clergy team will continue to meet our pastoral needs.

Vincent was ordained Deacon on January 25, 2025  at Trinity Cathedral in Phoenix.  He will be priested at St Andrew’s in August.  In the meantime, he will continue to work our congregation until his graduation.

Vincent’s Bio

The Reverend Vincent Caranchini is a Chicago native who grew up in a Polish, Italian, Catholic immigrant family and was attracted to ordained ministry from an early age. As an ordained Episcopal Deacon, Vincent is passionate about promoting the justice of the Gospel, which is rooted in prayer and worship and expressed through ministry and education. He has worked with various types of ministries, including retreat work, spiritual direction, education, arts, and social services.

Associate Professor in the School of Art + Design at Northern Arizona University. He completed a BFA in Fine Arts at the Chicago Art Institute and an MFA at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. He has been an educator in the fine arts and design for 25 years and has worked in higher education administration. He has a strong interest in liturgical spaces and religious art. As an artist and educator, he has exhibited artwork related to sacred space and iconography in national juried and selected exhibitions.

Vincent is excited to join the Episcopal community at Saint Andrew’s as their Priest-in-Charge beginning September 1, 2025. He is scheduled to complete his M.Div. at the Church Divinity School of the Pacific in May and be ordained to the priesthood in August. He and his spouse, Greg Bruce (a home inspector), currently reside in Flagstaff. They enjoy traveling to see art and architecture in the United States and abroad. They are very grateful for this opportunity to serve St. Andrew’s and the greater Sedona and Verde Valley region.

 

Walking a Labyrinth

Walking a labyrinth is an ancient spiritual tradition that invites each person’s quiet individual experience. There is no prescribed religious rite or activity. For some people the walk is a metaphoric pilgrimage. For others it provides peace, healing, or spiritual insight. Read more here.

Welcome to The Episcopal Church!

As Episcopalians, we are followers of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and believe in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We strive to love our neighbors as ourselves and respect the dignity of every person.

The Episcopal Church is part of the worldwide Anglican Communion, and traces its heritage to the beginnings of Christianity.

Our liturgy retains ancient structure and traditions, and is celebrated in many languages.

We welcome men and women, married or celibate, to be ordained as bishops, priests, and deacons.

We believe in amendment of life, the forgiveness of sin, and life everlasting.

Lay people exercise a vital role in the governance and ministry of our Church.

We uphold the Bible and worship with the Book of Common Prayer.
