Rev. Alex Shea Will is a pastor, teacher, ministry entrepreneur and fledgling rugby player. Through his ministry, Alex attempts to bring the hopeful message of the Church to not only those who have a faith background, but also those who wonder if the Church has anything left to offer.
Having discerned a call to ordained ministry by way of a Roman Catholic upbringing, a PCUSA summer camp, Evangelical young adult ministry, a traveling Gospel choir, and UCC campus ministry, Alex is adept at crafting diverse worship experiences for congregations of all sizes. Alex currently serves as Associate Pastor at South Church in Andover, Massachusetts - a progressive faith community within the United Church of Christ. At South Church, Alex is leading the congregation through a rebuilding and visioning of adult faith faith formation through blending traditional small group methods with 21st century technology.
Alex is also a founder of PATH - a pastoral formation collaborative comprised of clergy, churches, and seminaries, working together to form transformational leaders for the 21st century. Under his teaching responsibilities, the most recent courses he designed were "Entrepreneurship and Leadership in the Local Church," and "Church and Pastoral Administration."
Outside of local church ministry, Alex is actively involved with the wider Church and the United Church of Christ. He serves as Moderator of the Northeast Association, chair of the New Ministries Team of the Massachusetts Conference, and on the board of The BTS Center in Portland, Maine. As a pastor and musician, Alex leads worship throughout New England and serves as a worship consultant for both congregations and event planning teams.
Alex is a native of Pembroke, Massachusetts. He received a Master of Divinity from Andover Newton Theological School and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Catawba College, a UCC affiliated school. In his free time you'll likely find him coaching high school rugby, or watching soccer and basketball.
