The Rev. Jeremy Adams

Jeremy was born in Lakeland, Florida in 1990 and lived around the Orlando metropolitan area until the fall of 2023. He graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2012 with a Bachelor of Music and completed his Master of Music in 2014 at the University of South Florida. In 2023, Jeremy and his family moved to Alexandria, Virginia so that he could study at Virginia Theological Seminary.

Prior to leaving Florida, Jeremy was heavily involved in his home parish, Church of the Messiah as an assistant music minister, facilities minister, and co-founder of the Messiah School for the Arts alongside his wife, Gariné Adams. Jeremy and Gariné met at the University of Central Florida and were married in 2012. Gariné is currently completing a Master of Divinity degree at Virginia Theological Seminary. She is interested in pursuing work as a chaplain. They have two children: a daughter named Yester (which is the Armenian pronunciation of Esther), and a son named Joshua Douglas (JD).

Jeremy completed his Master of Divinity degree in 2026. Jeremy was ordained by Bishop Justin Holcomb to the Diaconate in November 2025, and to the Priesthood in May 2026.

As part of his studies, Jeremy began serving at All Saints as a seminarian intern in the fall of 2024. He was asked to remain at All Saints and joining the staff as a part time Student Ministry Coordinator alongside Jourdan Folger in the fall of 2025.

Jeremy is happy to answer his first full time call at All Saints Church and is looking forward to continuing serving the student ministry as well as assisting in aspects of worship, formation, and pastoral care at the church.

Prior to ministry, Jeremy was part of a touring band and spent a number of years writing, performing, and teaching music. He is most proud of a partnership with the Timucua Arts Foundation in Orlando, Florida that afforded him the opportunity to teach music composition at the Orlando Public Library as well as at a number of underserved schools and communities.
