Clergy and Staff

Father Pete Nunnally was born and raised in northern Virginia, but spent a lot of time in the Shenandoah Valley growing up. He loves reading, writing, music, and gather people together in community. His faith comes both from an Episcopal summer camp where he lived and worked for many years, as well as from traditional church, where he served as an acolyte as a youngster, lay eucharistic minister in high school, and, later, a youth minister. Out of college he taught middle school Physical Education before moving to New Orleans to work with the Diocese of Louisiana in post-Katrina recovery. Fr. Pete also served as a Director for Adult Spiritual Formation in Richmond, Virginia before graduating from seminary in 2020. He most recently served at St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Arlington, Virginia, where he was a senior associate rector. Fr. Pete looks forward to serving as Interim Rector at St. David’s during the transition period.

At St. David's we blend classic and contemporary styles together to reflect the depth of tradition and vibrancy of spirit in our worship. Choir members minister not only to the congregation, but to each other, forming a group that shares in each others' joys and sorrows. We are always looking for new people to join in the fellowship of this important ministry at St. David's.
