RECTOR

Fr. McLean serves as the Rector of St. Brendan's and the Archdeacon of North Washington for the Diocese of Cascadia. Prior to his call to the PNW, he served in Anglican churches in New England, Texas, and North Carolina. McLean's greatest joy in ministry is seeing others grow both in life-giving relationship with Jesus, and ever into His glorious image (2 Cor. 3:18). Raised in San Antonio, TX, McLean+ holds an M.Div from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in S. Hamilton, Mass., and a B.A in History from the University of Texas at Austin. McLean+ enjoys time with his wife Mary Moore, coffee & books, playing music (preferably with his three kids dancing along), and hiking with his family in God's beautiful creation.

But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God. -Galatians 4:4-7

BOOKKEEPER

As for me, I have many years of bookkeeping experience working in various fields of industry including about 20 years with attorneys and their staff.

Living in Bellingham for almost 25 years I feel blessed to live in such a beautiful part of the U.S. Also, I am a proud grandma of two college students, one with a tennis scholarship.

In the past I was a sailor sailing from England to the Caribbean in a 26‘ sailboat. We left England, sailed to Spain, Portugal, Madera and the Canary Islands. From the Canary Islands we sailed across the Atlantic to Barbados. My claim to fame is that we took 48 days to sail across the ocean, two weeks longer than Columbus, and he didn’t know where he was going, or so I am told. I worked as cook and crew on charter boats for 3 years before returning to the states and back to the “real” world.

She enjoys visiting local coffee shops, trivia nights, going on walks with her husband, doing puzzles with her son, and reading books with her daughter.

For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. – 1 Corinthians 13:12-13
