Father John Naugle, S.T.B.
Adriene Alarcon
aalarcon@saintsebastianparish.orgDirector of Stewardship
Christ has no body now on earth but yours, no hands but yours, no feet but yours.
~ Saint Teresa of Avila
We are the body of Christ! It’s up to us to represent Jesus to others and make a difference in the world. My role at Saint Sebastian Parish as the Director of Stewardship is to be Christ’s voice and reiterate His call to discipleship, as Saint Teresa says so beautifully above. Jesus calls us to serve God by helping others. Stewardship – giving your time, talent and treasure in gratitude for God’s abundant blessings – does just that. It’s finding your purpose by using your God-given abilities and blessings to give back to God. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as the Director of Stewardship and I am very excited to be a part of the great things about to unfold here at Saint Sebastian Parish.
Sister Jane Ellis
jellis@saintsebastianparish.orgParish Social Minister
As Parish Social Minister, my role is to familiarize parishioners with the Catholic Church’s Themes of Social Justice and to apply these themes to current social issues. Parishioners are encouraged to live out their Baptismal call to service by volunteering to join some of the parish committees, to contribute to food, clothing and furniture drives for the needy and to be actively involved in the support of peace and justice in our community, our nation and our world. I strive to keep parishioners informed of the Church’s position on social issues, such as Immigration Reform and the Right to Life, and encourage their participation in events that support this position.

My role at Saint Sebastian Parish is to provide a comprehensive religious education and faith formation program for total catechesis from “cradle to grave” that will enhance the programs already in place.
