The Rev Steve Ayres


The Rev. Steve Ayres is a retired priest living in Basalt, Colorado with his wife Lisa. 

Prior to retiring at the end of 2019, Steve was the vicar of the Old North Church in Boston, Massachusetts.  The Old North Church, of Paul Revere fame, functions both as an active Episcopal congregation and as a major historic site, welcoming a couple hundred thousand visitors each year. 

Steve, a big history buff, thoroughly enjoyed expanding the Old North’s educational programs and initiating major preservation projects to care for the three hundred year old church.

In retirement, Steve assists the clergy at St. Peter’s, Basalt and Christ Church, Aspen. Steve and Lisa are lifelong skiers and outdoor enthusiasts.
