The Reverend Bob Scott

The Reverend Bob Scott joined Saint Michael as Associate for Worship & Liturgy in August 2019. A former Saint Michael parishioner, Bob returns to Saint Michael after nearly 15 years in Oklahoma where he was a lay leader and then ordained a priest at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Tulsa.

Most recently, Bob served as Executive Director of OSU-University Multispectral Laboratories (UML), a wholly owned subsidiary of Oklahoma State University, with offices in Tulsa, OK and Ponca City, OK, a position he held since 2013. He was responsible for the reorganization of the Company and oversaw all operations. Prior to joining OSU, Bob served as Chief Operating Officer of Knightsbridge Resources, and oversaw the relocation of the multinational company’s operations from London, England to Tulsa, OK in 2005.

For over 15 years in the banking sector, Bob held positions as CEO, President, COO and CFO for several Savings Banks. He was responsible for building an organization from 6 employees to 150 employees in a four-month period to manage a $2.5 billion “bad bank” portfolio in Dallas, TX. At another Texas Savings Bank, Mr. Scott was responsible for the reorganization and management of an underperforming $1.8 billion Covered Asset Division. Related to the institutional portfolio management sector, he held positions with the Federal Home Loan Bank, Stephens, Inc. and Shearson American Express in Little Rock, AR.

Bob was raised in Little Rock and grew up in the Baptist Church. While in college at the University of Arkansas, Bob discovered the Episcopal Church and was drawn to its beauty and openness. Bob’s wife and partner in ministry, Jann, was raised in the Episcopal Church. First a student at SMU, Jann transferred to the University of Arkansas after she and Bob became engaged and were married the following summer.

Bob received his BA and MBA from the University of Arkansas, and Jann received her BSE in Elementary Education from UA as well. After a break from teaching to focus more time on their two daughters, Tiffani and Amanda, Jann excelled as a realtor in Dallas working primarily in the Park Cities area. Jann has been active in the Altar Guild, and also serving as a Chalice Bearer and acolyte for over 30 years. She has been active in the Jr. Leagues of Little Rock, Oklahoma City, and Dallas, and as a Cursillo team member in Arkansas, Texas, and Oklahoma

The Reverend Robert (Bob) Johnston III

Much of Bob’s ministry has concentrated on evangelism. He studied church planting in seminary, was ordained in 2003 in London, and served in Brompton. Most recently he helped start and lead the contemporary worship ministry, “Uptown,” at Church of the Incarnation, as well as the small group ministry, “Growth Groups,” and an outreach in local pubs known as “Theology Live.”

Bob has graduate degrees in theology, law, and business from Southern Methodist University, and maintains an intellectual property law practice. He is at Saint Michael two days a week; on Sundays, serving primarily in the 11:00 contemporary worship service, and one other day during the week. Bob has twin sons, Hugh and Ian.
