Randy Hollerith '82 Named Dean THE REV. RANDOLPH "RANDY" MARSHALL HOLLERITH '82 HAS BEEN NAMED THE 11TH DEAN OF THE WASHINGTON NATIONAL CATHEDRAL. Randy is an Episcopal priest with 25
years of leadership experience, most recently serving 16 of those as Rector of St. James's Episcopal Church in Richmond, Virginia. "This Cathedral is a holy place that calls our city, our country, and all people of faith to work for justice, peace and compassion," Randy said. "I am honored to be called to serve as the Dean of the Cathedral and thrilled to be part of this beloved national institution." As Dean, Randy will oversee an institution that functions as a national church dedicated to serving the country and its many faith traditions; a national treasure, serving worshipers and visitors; the cathedral of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington; and a convener, dedicated to bringing people together in conversation and partnership. The National Cathedral is the seat of both the presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church and the Bishop of the Diocese of Washington. Randy is the 2014 recipient of the St. Stephen's & St. Agnes School Distinguished Alumni Service Award, recognizing his leadership in the growth of the largest mission program in the Diocese of Virginia and dramatically expanding programs and participation in St. James's outreach ministries, both locally and globally. Congratulations to Randy on this appointment, as he leads the Cathedral in its mission to be a spiritual home for the nation and a house of prayer for all people. He will be formally installed later this year.
