By the Grace of God and the Consent of the People, Bishop Chip Edgar, Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of South Carolina, will ordain the Rev. Tom Cannon to the Sacred Order of Priests on Thursday, January 8 at 6 p.m. at Saint Helena’s, Beaufort, South Carolina. 

A native of Philadelphia, the Rev. Tom Cannon earned a B.A. degree from the University of South Carolina and an M.Div. from Reformed Theological Seminary. He came to our Diocese from the Presbyterian Church in America, where for 36 years, his ministry included work on the university campus, parish ministry, and heading up Reformed University Fellowship for the PCA in places such as Australia, New York City, and Savannah. Tom and his wife Dawn are members of Saint Helena’s in Beaufort. He serves as a Humane Letters teacher and Assistant Chaplain at Holy Trinity Classical Christian School. Married for 39 years, Tom and Dawn have three adult children and two grandchildren. As an inveterate fan of Gamecock and Philadelphia sports, Tom is clearly a glutton for punishment.
