The theme will be along the lines of “Being a peacemaker and interpreting turbulent times.” If you need more, feel free to let me know. 

Rev. Gavin B.J. Walton is the pastor of Grace Memorial Presbyterian Church in Pittsburgh’s historic Hill District. Gavin is a native of Pittsburgh and a graduate of Central Catholic High School, Duquesne University (B.A.), and the Pittsburgh Theological Seminary (M.Div), where he is currently enrolled in the Doctor of Ministry (D.Min) program.

Since his ordination in 2017, Gavin has become a fixture in the Pittsburgh Presbytery working with its younger members, developing new ministries, and sharing his skills with a host of community groups city-wide. Through dynamic preaching and teaching, he seeks to spread the gospel of God’s love and justice to the Hill and beyond.

Gavin is the co-organizer of an anti-racist, interfaith leaders group in the Pittsburgh area. (This group was created out of the 2020 Oakland Vigil for Black Lives, which Gavin also co-organized.) The group consists of various clergy and non-clergy leaders who seek to support one another in the anti-racism work they do in their respective congregations and communities.
