The Reverend Martin Yost is the Rector of St. Luke's. He began his ministry at Saint Luke's in February 2018 as a long-term supply priest and was called as Rector in January 2019.
Fr Yost grew up in the Boston area and received a B.A. in English from Tufts University, where he developed a particular interest in seventeenth century English poetry as well as T. S. Eliot and Dante. It was during this time that he began attending the Church of the Advent in Boston, a leading parish since the nineteenth century of the Catholic Revival in the Episcopal Church. (The first Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Albany, the Right Reverend William Croswell Doane, who was born in Boston, was named for his father's best friend, the Rev. William Croswell, the first Rector of the Church of the Advent.) After several years in banking, Fr. Yost went to seminary at Nashotah House in Wisconsin, from which he received his M.Div. in 2002.
Fr Yost has served parishes, schools, and college chaplaincies in Wisconsin, Texas, and Rhode Island. He is on the Council of the Society of Mary, the Board of Trustees of the Society of King Charles the Martyr, and is a member of the Society of the Holy Cross.
