Rick is founder of All Saints Company and co-founder of St. Gregory of Nyssa Episcopal Church.  Rick has offers an extraordinary ability to synthesize modern church growth models with patristic theology and practice.  He realized his life-long dream to found a church on the teaching of the Cappadocian theologians with the founding of St. Gregory of Nyssa in 1978, which has developed an international reputation for participatory worship.  His congregational music compositions appear in Episcopal Church service books and others. A highly-regarded liturgical scholar, he is a member of the international Societas Liturgica and the North American Academy of Liturgy.  He continues to lecture and write.
