The ministry all Episcopalians have in common is our baptismal ministry. Therefore, the primary ministers of the church are lay people in their daily life and work.

• There are also the ordained vocations of bishops, priests and deacons.
• Bishops oversee the life of a diocese.
• Priests oversee the life of the congregations.
• Deacons oversee the church’s responsibility to the poor and needy.
• At St. Mary Magdalene there is a staff of two priests, Michael Houlik and Felicia SmithGraybeal, and one deacon, Rhoads Hollowell.
