Welcome Ryan Peters!
Please help us welcome our new Confirmation Coordinator, Ryan Peters. He began in his position on September 1st. Here is a note from him and photo of his family:
Hi, I’m Ryan Peters, a local from here in Goleta. I attended Santa Barbara City College and then finished my B.S. in Psychology online at the University of Mary in North Dakota. During my time at SBCC I met a woman who led me back to my faith and started me along my own journey of discovering the beauty and truth that the Catholic Church holds. I am honored to be working with such a lovely parish community and look forward to getting to know you all more fully in the coming years.
