Book Overview

Father Roy came to the ordained priesthood in the Diocese of Huron after thirty years in the business world marketing insurance. He holds a Master of Theology degree from Wilfrid Laurier University and a certificate from the Interim Ministry Network.

The Rev. Roy Shepherd was brought up and educated in Montreal, Qu?bec, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree with Honours in Sociology from McGill University.

He was baptized and confirmed in the Anglican church, and held many volunteer lay positions in the parishes where he worshipped and in the Diocese of Toronto, including election to the Diocesan Synod for a number of years and chairmanship of its Board of Parish Services.
