~ Bishop Rob Wright
Trey is a Candidate for Holy Orders to the Priesthood in the Diocese of Atlanta. He currently serves at St. Paul’s Atlanta as his Sunday placement.
Originally from Shreveport, Louisiana, Trey has been in Atlanta for the past four years. He graduated with his Master’s of Divinity in Justice, Peacebuilding, and Conflict Transformation and a Certificate in Episcopal and Anglican Studies from the Candler School of Theology at Emory University in May 2023. A 2017 graduate of Centenary College of Louisiana, he holds a BA in History with a minor in Music. At Centenary, he served as an Admission Counselor for three years before entering seminary in the fall of 2020. He accepted a call to Holy Innocents’ Episcopal School in January 2023 to be the Lower School Chaplain.
Prior to that, he served as seminarian at Holy Innocents’ Episcopal Church for three years, seminarian at Emmaus House for a year, and as Program Director for Appleton Ministries’ Free to Read Program in Macon in the summer of 2021 and 2022.
Outside of his professional commitments, Treyis an enthusiastic journaler, reader, coffee lover, and hiker. His Jack Russell Terrier, Beethoven, is a cherished companion, bringing joy and light into his life.
“We’re very excited to welcome Trey to the Absalom Jones Episcopal Center. Reconnecting with students, faculty, and staff of the historic institutions of the AUC is a major priority, and Trey brings the right experience, level of enthusiasm, and calling to help make that happen.”
~ The Rev. Greg Warren
Interim Executive Director, The Absalom Jones Center for Racial Healing
As Trey embarks on his new role as Campus Missioner, he brings a wealth of experience, a deep commitment to ministry, and a genuine desire to support and guide students at the Atlanta University Center.
“During undergrad, I was part of the Christian Leadership Center and Canterbury House, and ended up its director after. Canterbury played a huge role in my beginning to discern a call to ordained ministry in my junior year of college. My biggest hope is that I can be able to accompany AUC students as they discern the various calls on their lives, whatever they might be, so that I can be for them what I had during my time in Canterbury.”
