Fr. Nathan Davis was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and spent his early childhood there before growing up in both Michigan and Florida as the oldest of three siblings. After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering from Villanova University, Fr. Davis served four years in the U.S. Army at Fort Lewis, Washington, and later worked thirteen years as a Computer Engineer for the Department of Defense. Throughout these years, he lived and traveled widely across the United States and developed enduring hobbies in birdwatching, hiking, and reading, as well as a love for watching hockey and rugby. Raised in the Episcopal Church, he entered into full communion with the Catholic Church in 2012—an experience that profoundly shaped his life and led him to discern a call to the priesthood. Following six years of seminary formation, Fr. Davis was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Lopes on June 29, 2020, served three years as Parochial Administrator of St. Alban’s Ordinariate Community in Rochester, NY, and now serves at Our Lady of Grace in Covina, CA. Saint John Henry Newman is his patron saint and spiritual father.
