The Rev. Samantha McKean joined the staff of Christ Church in August of 2017. Two years later, she was ordained a priest here at Christ Church (what a joyful experience to be made a priest in the place she calls home!).

Samantha is a 2017 graduate of Duke Divinity School (M.Div.) and a 2013 graduate of Wheaton College (B.A. in Biblical and Theological Studies). 

She lives with her husband, Garrett Zajac, their daughter, Vera, and their sweet rescue dog, Murray.
