Christine Trainor and Phil Ellsworth have been friends since 1993. They met in New Haven, CT training for Holy Orders; worked together for Bill Tully at St Bartholomew’s in the City of New York; lived in San Francisco and DC for a long time apart; and are glad to be together again serving St Stephen’s Church, Belvedere.
