Percival served briefly after ordination at Grace Church, Merchantville, New Jersey, and as curate from 1878 to 1880 at a chapel of Christ Church, Philadelphia. He was elected rector of the Church of the Evangelists, Philadelphia, in 1880, and pursued a plan of Anglo-Catholic enrichment of its services; he oversaw the building of a new church beginning in 1885 and the planting of S. Elisabeth's Church as a nearby mission under the care of the Congregation of the Companions of the Holy Saviour and William Ignatius Loyola McGarvey. Percival retired as rector in 1897, citing ill health, and was succeeded by the Reverend Charles W. Robinson.
