Kevin Parks (he/him/his) is the Congregation Designated Minister of Music at St. Andrew's United Church and University Musician at Atlantic School of Theology, both in Halifax, Nova Scotia. After a 6 year discernment gap, he recently re-initiated my Candidacy Pathway for Ordered Ministry in the United Church of Canada, and studies in the MDiv program at AST. He serves on the development team for the United Church of Canada's coming (2025) digital hymn resource Then Let Us Sing!

He attended MMC workshops in New Jersey and Chicago in 2018-19 and is positively thrilled to join the MMC board in 2023.
