Joint service with St. John Chrysostom

The Rev. Douglas K. Bleyle has been called to serve as Priest-in-Charge of the newly formed SJC Partnership of St. John Chrysostom, Golden, and St. Joseph, Lakewood. His last charge was Rector St. Barnabas of the Valley Cortez. Doug received his M.Div. from Iliff School of Theology in 2006 and a Th. M. from Candler School of Theology, 2008. Doug loves responding to the common question, ‘where did you live growing up,’ with ‘in the Church,’ as he comes from a family of four ordained United Methodist ministers, including his father. Prior to finally accepting the call to serve in ministry, he worked as a Pediatric Occupational Therapist for 15 years in a private clinic in Denver, Colorado. Going into Seminary at Iliff, he encountered the Anglican Studies program and has never looked back. Doug has been involved in various ministries in the Episcopal Church, including camp, indigenous ministries, COM, urban and rural mission/parish ministry.

Bishop Kym Lucas invites leaders engaged in Becoming Beloved Community ministries to gather at St. Andrew’s in Denver, with the Rev. Canon Stephanie Spellers facilitating.

Becoming Beloved Community in the Episcopal Church is a long-term commitment to racial reconciliation, healing, and justice. It calls Episcopalians to live into their Baptismal Covenant by working toward a society where all people experience dignity and equity as God's beloved children.

This gathering welcomes leaders in race justice initiatives, Indigenous allies, Latino ministry leaders, Asian and Pacific Islander community leaders, and those working in migrant and refugee ministries—as well as others engaged in this transformative work. The Summit is also open to emerging leaders who have a passion for these ministries and a desire to help the Church more fully embody Becoming Beloved Community. Join us for learning, networking, and inspiration.
