Rev. Tom Altepeter

Please join me in welcoming Rev. Thomas Altepeter to the SpokaneFAVS team.

Altepeter is the pastor of St. Clare Ecumenical Catholic Community, which "offers a different way to be Catholic."

The church is not under the jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic Church, yet shares a common theological and liturgical history.

Altepeter, who is also a licensed psychologist, has a special interest in spirituality, the integration of spirituality with emotional well being, and a contemporary approach to living within the Catholic Christian tradition.

You can read more about him on his author's page.
