Our Rector, Father Andrew Reinholz, is a native of Berks County, PA. He graduated from Moravian College with a major in religion and a minor in political science before pursuing ordination and earning his Master of Divinity at General Theological Seminary in Manhattan. He is currently pursuing his Doctorate of Ministry at Sewanee in liturgy.
Fr. Andrew is married to The Rev. Kimberly Reinholz (Mother Kim), and they have two children. When you see Andrew around town, you may find him walking their rescue dog, Indiana Bones. Before coming to Pitman, the Reinholz’s lived and served in The Dioceses of Virginia and Bethlehem (in Pennsylvania). They have both served on diocesan staffs and worked in parish settings.
Fr. Andrew is an avid reader and is passionate about music and film. He is particularly interested in the crossroads of faith and art. Coming from Southeastern PA, his local sports teams are Philly based, so he’s celebrated World Series and Super Bowl wins but is still waiting for a Stanley Cup in his lifetime. The Reinholz’s enjoy traveling. As the COVID threat lessens and their kids grow older, they hope to embark on family adventures, both at home and abroad.
As a liturgist and priest, Fr. Andrew has been called to The Church of the Good Shepherd. He is hopeful about the many exciting ministries and opportunities to serve alongside talented and passionate people. He looks forward to sitting down and talking with you over a coffee or while walking in the neighborhood. His door is always open. Come by and say hello.
