The Rev. Canon Kevin Olds serves as ECCT Canon for Congregations & Transitions. In the words of Canon Olds: "I originally hail from central upstate New York. After undergrad, I spent a few years in IT before following a call to the priesthood. Degrees from Drew Theological School and General Seminary, and work in the Dioceses of New Jersey and Massachusetts, led me to ECCT in 2017.I served as rector of St. Timothy’s, Fairfield, until its merger with St. Paul’s, Fairfield. During that time, I completed my terminal degree at Evangelical Seminary and began teaching at Kairos.edu and Sacred Heart University. Since the merger, I have served as St. Paul’s Associate Rector for Formation. Alongside parish ministry and teaching, I have served in multiple capacities in ECCT including: Mentor in the Missional Curacy program, Southwest Regional Dean, and Title IV Intake Officer.My wife, Jill, is a UCC minister and we have two boys: Zack (12) and Tommy (9). In the rare moment when nothing else is vying for my attention, I enjoy watching football—the English kind, not the American kind. My favorite club is Shrewsbury Town F.C."
