The Rev Mike Angell engages communities in practices of prayerful shared discernment and action for justice. Before his current call as rector of St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church in Albuquerque, he served for eight years as the rector of the Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion in the St Louis area. He has degrees from the Virginia Theological Seminary and the University of San Diego. He was ordained at St John’s Church, Lafayette Square in Washington DC in 2011.
Mike is an award-winning preacher, writer, and activist. He is passionate about connecting across human boundaries to pursue Christ’s vision of the Beloved Community. Beyond St Michael’s he lives into this mission through his service on the board of Cristosal, a leading human rights organization in Central America.
Mike grew up skiing and hiking in Colorado. For him, there is a deep connection between spirituality and time in creation. Mike enjoys reading the theology of Jon Sobrino and Kelly Brown Douglas, the fiction of Madeleine L’Engle, and the poetry of Mary Oliver. Mike lives in the North Valley with his husband and son. Mike’s family are now at least the fourth and fifth generation to call New Mexico home.
Mike and his husband Ellis Anderson, a Librarian at a local Middle School, are the proud parents of a five year old. Their family is rounded out by two sweet Labradoodles named Oscar and Gus.
