The Rev. Phil C. Mason is a native of Austin, Texas and a graduate of The Episcopal Theological Seminary of the Southwest in the class of 1996. He was ordained in the Diocese of Colorado and served there as priest and rector for 13 years. On retirement in 2009 he and his wife Susan moved back to Texas and built a home near San Marcos and Wimberley. Since returning "home" Rev. Mason has served as Interim Rector at Grace Episcopal Church, Llano, St. Philip's Episcopal Church in San Antonio and St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Brady. Obviously Phil have flunked retirement and continues to serve as "supply clergy" throughout the diocese.
