Our Staff

Scott Deasy

Deacon

pronouns: he/him/his

Scott moved to Flagstaff in 1998 with his wife Kathy, her father, and their three sons. He has been an Episcopal Deacon for nearly 9 years, and was assigned by Bishop Reddall to serve with LCM|Canterbury beginning in January of 2021. 

In the Episcopal Church, deacons are charged with bringing the church to the world and the world to the church, and the focus of Scott's diaconal life has been on the social gospel and advocacy.  This has involved work here in Flagstaff such as serving on several community and philanthropy boards including being a member of the Flagstaff Police Department’s Community Liaison Council, Northern Arizona Interfaith Council, and the Arizona Interfaith Network. He has also served on our Episcopal Board for several years.

Along with Scott's work at LCM|Canterbury, he serves in a number of roles within the diocese. These include being a member of the faculty of the Deacon Formation Academy, co-teaching classes on Advocacy and Anti-Racism, and serving on the Commission on Ministry, the Anti-Racism Committee, and the Standing Committee. Scott is very excited to join us at LCM|Canterbury.
