(The Rt Revd) John Engle Miller, III  serves as our Missionary Bishop.

John founded Prince of Peace Anglican Church, a 400-member congregation located in Melbourne, FL, in February 2004.  On January 26, 2008, he was consecrated as a missionary bishop in the Province of the Anglican Church of Rwanda to serve the Anglican Mission in the Americas, a missionary outreach from Rwanda to North America.

John graduated from Trinity School for Ministry, Ambridge, PA in 1993.  Prior to founding Prince of Peace, John served as Rector of St. John’s Episcopal Church (1996-2004), Priest-in-Charge of Holy Trinity Episcopal Church (1995-1996) and Assistant Rector and School Chaplin of Holy Trinity (1993-1994), both in Melbourne.  While at St. John’s, John introduced his flock to the importance of local and global missions, resulting in the support of mission trips to Africa, Papua New Guinea, England, Honduras, Haiti and several stateside locations. His greatest blessing as an Anglican Mission priest has been participating in the planting of new mission churches that lead unbelievers into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. In its inaugural year, Prince of Peace played a key role in planting a new mission in Ft. Mill, SC.

In his former career, John held positions in marine biology with the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC and Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution, Ft. Pierce, FL, conducting research from Bermuda to Antarctica and throughout the Caribbean Sea. His favorite memory as a scientist is diving in manned research submersibles to depths of 3,000 feet.  When asked how it was possible to make the leap from biology to theology, John notes how blessed he was to spend 18 years studying the creation and how grateful he is to have the remainder of his life to study the Creator.

John and his wife Joyce have been married for 35; together they have led three pilgrimages to the Holy Land to walk in the footsteps of Jesus and another to Greece and Turkey to study the missionary journeys of the apostle Paul. The Millers have three children, Paul, Kimberly and David.
