About our Pastor:

Fr. Oliver is presently completing a doctorate degree in historical theology from Saint Louis University and recently moved to a farm near Fertile, Minnesota, in order to complete his dissertation and serve St. Nicholas Orthodox Church in Fargo.  He has been married to his wife, Lorie, for eleven years, and they have three children: Micah, Macrina, and Anastasia (“Tasha”).  Fr. Oliver enjoys learning and writing about church history and theology, chess, eskrima (a Filipino martial art), hunting, working on air-cooled VW’s, fencing (with swords, not barbed wire), and spending time with his family.
