Rev. Aaron Parsall-Myler

Rev. Aaron was born and raised in London, England. His family were occasional church-goers, only attending baptisms, wedding and funerals. When he was 14, he joined the Emmanuel Anglican Church in Croydon, UK. It was here that Aaron started his Christian journey by becoming a youth leader at 17. When he was 19, Aaron moved to Canada and studied History and English at Cape Breton University in Nova Scotia. After he graduated, Aaron planned to study and become a teacher. However, he felt that was called to something else and, after moving to Edmonton, understood that he was called to the Church in some way.

Aaron met his lovely wife, Erika, at the beginning of 2015 and they were married in October of 2017. In 2015, Aaron was ordained to the Diaconate and became a Canadian Citizen. On January 25, 2018 he was ordained to the priesthood.

Rev. Aaron has many years experience working with youth. From 2014 to 2017 he worked with the Salvation Army in their residential and addiction treatment program. There, he learned in the areas of addiction and mental health. In 2017, Rev. Aaron returned to parish work at St. Matthew’s Anglican Church, St. Albert. In December 2018, he joined St. Augustine’s – Parkland as the Associate Priest and the Priest-in-Charge for Mission of St. Saviour, Wabamun.
