Phil Palmer
Phil Palmer has been a member of All Saints Episcopal Church Palo Alto for over thirty years. During that time, he has served the parish in many ways, including as a Lay Assistant and Lector, on the Vestry, and as chair of the committee that developed the 2014 strategic plan. He also led the search that brought Fr. Terry Gleeson to All Saints. Phil has contributed to adult formation through leading Sunday forums and a ten-year Bible study, covering the New Testament twice and the entire Hebrew Scriptures once. In social justice, he currently serves as Chair of the Immigrants and Refugees Action Group and has facilitated A Storied Pilgrimage With Race, an anti-racism program offered through the Diocese. Entering his fourth term on the Vestry, Phil looks forward to working with parishioners and Mother Ajung to discern and carry out God’s vision for All Saints, fostering a welcoming, engaged, and spiritually vibrant community.
