The Reverend Mr. Glenn M. Matis was the Rector of Resurrection, Mayfair, Philadelphia (Pennypack Deanery) from 1989 until his retirement in June, 2006.  Prior to going to Resurrection, he was the 1978 organizing priest to what was then the newest mission in the diocese, Holy Nativity, Wrightstown, Pennsylvania (Bucks Deanery).  An on-going and abiding concern of Father Matis is new mission development and renewed mission development in all parts of the diocese.  At the November 2005 Diocesan Convention, he was elected to his fourth five-year term on the Standing Committee.  Presently, he is a member of the Diocesan Commission on Salaries and Pensions.  He was the President of the Standing Committee from 2000 to 2004 and has been re-elected to that office.  He was also elected to the Diocesan Finance and Property Committee as it became an elected rather than an appointed body at the 2006 convention.  He was President of the National Network of Episcopal Clergy Association from 1997-1998.  He was twice the President of the Episcopal Clergy Association of Pennsylvania (ECAP).  His past service also involved him as being the President of the Mayfair/Holmesburg Ecumenical Ministerium from 1992 to 2002.  Fr. Matis is a member of the American Guild of Organists.
