Rex H Pilger Jr is a deacon of the Archdiocese of Denver, Colorado, ordained over 26 years. He and wife Rita have been married for more than forty-one years; they have five grown children and eight grandchildren (so far). A geoscientist by secular vocation, he taught university geophysics and tectonics for many years and has contributed numerous research articles and published a monograph on plate tectonics and the fractured habitats of oil and natural gas. Deacon Rex's ministry has included preparation of couples for marriage and baptism of their children, all dimensions of liturgy, and formation of men for ordination to the permanent diaconate. His research in plate tectonics is ongoing, and he has been exploring the deep connections of faith and reason and their analogies with the structures and contents of scientific inquiry and artistic creativity.
