Fr. Ben Wallis is the Rector of Incarnation Holy Sacrament Episcopal Church, where he has served since 2013.
He is passionate about helping people encounter Jesus in real, lived ways—especially those who may not expect to find themselves in church. His ministry focuses on building authentic community, forming disciples for everyday life, and guiding congregations through seasons of change and renewal with honesty, creativity, and hope.
Ben’s preaching is rooted in resurrection and transformation. Drawing from story, symbol, and Scripture, he seeks to guide people through darkness into light with a pastoral heart, a prophetic lens, and a sacramental imagination.
He is a professed member of the Anamchara Fellowship, a religious order shaped by the spirituality of Celtic Christianity, which emphasizes prayer, pilgrimage, and attentiveness to God’s presence in everyday life.
Outside the parish, Ben has been involved in writing, podcasting, and creative work, including game design and conversations around faith and culture.
Most of all, he cares deeply about people and would love to connect. You can reach him at:
