We are blessed to have The Rev. Tory Moir as our priest while Terri is on sabbatical.
Hello! I'm Tory.
My pronouns are they/them.
I was born and raised in Colorado, where I live with my wife, our two busy kids, our two cats, and dozens of houseplants.
I am a priest in the Episcopal Church and a multidisciplinary creative. What does that mean? I love the church, and I love practicing creativity in a way that welcomes others into loving relationship with themselves, God, and their neighbors. I am also a PhD student at the University of Denver and Iliff School of Theology, focusing on Practical Theology (the way our faith is lived out in practice).
Growing up in a family of musicians fostered my life-long connection between spirituality and creativity. I developed a voracious appetite for creative practice that has led me from music to theater, painting, drawing, digital art, poetry, knitting, and sewing. I could never pick one thing, so I stopped trying.
I am also the first transgender priest ordained in the Diocese of Colorado. I see my ministry as a witness to the infinite variety of human expression, and the truth that we are all beloved children of God. God is so big, and the church sometimes tries to make God small, small enough to be comfortable. It is my conviction, though, that a vital, Spirit-filled church can still speak to the challenges and opportunities of our present situation. The love of Jesus Christ has saved my life, and I know that it can save others.
