The Right Reverend Randall J PIke
St. Augustine Anglican Church
Established in North Dakota by Bishop Ordinary Randall J. Pike, St. Augustine was founded as a “Church Without Walls.” Its mission reflects the apostolic model of ministry—going out to meet people in their places of need, rather than requiring them to come to a fixed location. In this way, the church actively brings the presence, care, and sacramental life of Christ into the everyday contexts of those it serves.
The Most Reverend Randall J. Pike serves as Acting Moderator of the Communion of Anglican Churches International, Bishop of the Diocese of the Midwest, and Bishop Ordinary of St. Augustine Anglican Church, North Dakota.
Transitional Deacon William De Oliveira is a licensed and accredited chaplain currently working to establish St. Alcuin Theological Studies within a prison in Columbus, Ohio. With a population of over 6000 men, the Columbus Study Center serves prisoners seeking a clear, foundational understanding and/or formal education in Christianity balanced in the Anglican Tradition.
Deacon Oliveira holds a Master of Divinity and brings more than 20 years of broad experience in pastoral ministry and leadership formation to St. Augustine Anglican Church. A native of Brazil, Deacon Oliveira brings both pastoral sensitivity and cross-cultural perspective to his ministry. In addition, he serves as a Hospice Chaplain in the local area, which has been his calling for many years. He is scheduled to be ordained to the priesthood in St. Augustine Anglican Church, CACI.
Layperson Marcus Ballentine is a student of the Deaconate seeking ordination. He will be ordained in St. Augustine Anglican Church, CACI. His initial area of ministry will be in developing the educational needs of Christians within the Houston, Texas area.
