Rector at Saints Church

All Saints Anglican Church in Everett, Washington seeks to fill the position of Rector. We are a biblically orthodox parish of the Anglican Diocese of Cascadia located in the Pacific Northwest, north of Seattle. We prefer to hire a full-time Rector but are open to discussing part-time status with a strong candidate if necessary. Applications are due by January 16, 2026.

We hold a high view of the sacraments as well as the liturgical legacy of the Anglican tradition. Our musical worship is a mix of traditional hymns and contemporary songs that are both theologically sound and singable in a congregational setting. Our weekly services primarily follow the Renewed Ancient Text of the 2019 Book of Common Prayer as used by the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA).

We are a multi-generational parish with average weekly attendance between 30 and 40.

All Saints is currently renting space from one of its planting partners, Bethel Baptist Church, in downtown Everett. We meet on Saturday evenings and share the facility for events happening throughout the week.
