The Rev. Tambria (Tammy) Lee
Rector
I have served God and the church since 1984. I have been a youth director, lay associate, parish associate, and campus chaplain. I have served as Rector of Saint Paul’s since January 2019. I was raised on a small North Florida Island, which bears more than a striking resemblance to Beaufort if having had a Pouggie plant, large brown bugs, and way too much humidity are any indication. I am the granddaughter of a Methodist church musician who allowed me to sit by her side on the piano bench and would play hymns on demand. My mother was a Georgia Sweet Potato Queen and fabulous cook, and my father was a Salvage Dealer and local politician/ folk hero who collected a little bit of everything and challenged equally as much. Both prepared me for a life in the church which has never been dull! I believe Christ died to take away our sins, not our minds, that God loves us relentlessly, and that there is nothing we can say or do that will separate us from God’s grace and love.
Contact Tammy if you:
- want to talk about that over coffee
- have ideas for turning trash into treasures for the Harvest Bazaar
- want to just take a walk on Front Street
The Rev. Ashley Simpson
Associate Rector for Parish Ministry
I grew up in the Episcopal Church and was recently ordained to the priesthood. I have been serving the people of St. Paul’s since June of 2022. However, this is not my first time worshipping with the wonderful people of this parish. For a brief time eight years ago, I served as the part-time Director of Youth Ministries while teaching environmental science full-time. While I am the Associate for Parish Ministry, my primary areas of oversight include children’s and youth programming. If you are curious about how to address me, you can call me Ashley, Mother Ashley, or Reverend Ashley. I answer to any name but prefer to be called Ashley.
Contact Ashley if you:
- want to find out more about Children’s & Youth Ministries
- want to talk about Marine Biology and our beautiful coastline (especially sharks)
- are interested in whether or not Dolly Parton is a saint
