Bishop's Committee
Tim O’Malley, Bishop’s Warden
I was raised Roman Catholic. Having worked for the Trinity Episcopal Cathedral in Phoenix, AZ, as a project manager for a major fire reconstruction, I then assisted the Episcopal Diocese of Arizona as the Clerke of the Works (over fifteen years). My work with the Episcopal Church confirmed to me their open and non-judgmental philosophy. When we moved to New Mexico in March 2019, we decided to attend the Episcopal Church. After looking at websites of the three Episcopal churches here in Santa Fe, we sought out Holy Family. It was warm and welcoming. I enjoyed the service, especially the Sermon and communion service.
Erin Caldwell, Treasurer
I grew up in a Southern Baptist and an Evangelical Free Church. I was baptized when I was about 11 years old. I went to a liberal arts Christian college (Wheaton College in Illinois.) My senior year, though, a good friend of mine got involved in an urban church in Chicago that a professor from Wheaton also attended. I started attending that church with the professor, and it helped my faith to see Christianity in action in that neighborhood.
I still attended evangelical churches as a young adult, as I didn’t know other churches, but then was involved in a Mennonite church (not old order or plain), and found that Anabaptist theology with its emphasis on peace, justice and generosity resonated with me. When I got married, my husband and I found another church together near our home, and then the last 6 months of our time in Denver started attending an Episcopal Church where an acquaintance of mine from the E. Free church and Wheaton College was the music director.
When I was looking for a church in Santa Fe, I decided to look for an Episcopal Church, and found Holy Family. I like small churches, and Holy Family feels like my family.
Nate Cagle
Linda and I have been members of Holy Family since 2013 and have been attending Episcopal churches for twenty years. I grew up in the Methodist tradition. Over the years I have served on church vestry/church councils, been the leader of the men’s group and been on various committees. I am particularly interested in community outreach and missions, and church organization. For several years Linda and I have volunteered at the Bag N Hand food pantry in Santa Fe.
I am a retired Naval Aviator and a retired corporation human resource executive. I have lived all over the United States and Japan, having grown up in Delaware. Linda and I retired in 2013 from Anchorage, Alaska, where I worked for an Alaskan native corporation. Now we split our time between Santa Fe and Maine, spending 6 months in each location. With the use of zoom or other on-line meeting venues, I would be able to “attend” Bishop Committee meetings on line when not in Santa Fe. I currently serve on several non-corporate boards of directors and I am the president of one non-profit organization.
I have been very pleased to see the growth at Holy Family, both in numbers of attendees and in the outreach that the church does in the community. I would love to see the church be able to have a bigger presence in the south Santa Fe community.
Jan Yanoscik
My name is Janice (Jan) Yanoscik. My family and I have lived at Rancho Viejo in Santa Fe for the past two years, having moved from a small beach community in southern California. I am a retired dental hygienist of forty years and have my PhD in Psychology and have worked in family practice for over twenty years. Since Spring of 2020, my son Cameron and I have been attending services at Holy Family. I was originally raised Roman Catholic on the East Coast where I grew up, however, for the past few years I have felt more aligned with the Episcopal Church and its beliefs and values. When I made the move to Santa Fe, I found Holy Family very welcoming.
I have always been a people person in and out of work settings, connecting with others on their level and listening to their individual life stories. I thrive when working with others and will help to promote church interest and community spirit. In particular, with my background in counseling and hypnotherapy, I hope to be more involved in offering counseling services to members of our church congregation, especially families who seek guidance.
Holy Family is such a close-knit community and I love the warmth and friendliness of Rev. Corinne and Deacon Pat. My hopes for our church are to grow and flourish in the coming years and, eventually as we open up more, to include more family activities and church get-togethers.
Katherine Rowe
My husband, Phil, and I moved to Santa Fe two years ago, arriving on All Saints Day. I have been attending Holy Family since that time, first via livestream, then in person (yeah!).
I was raised in a Christian household where many relatives were pastors: some Presbyterian, some Methodist, some Church of the Brethren, some Baptist. At age 15 I met God in the Anglican Church while overseas and never looked back. The liturgy, the grounding in scripture, the lay participation, the welcoming breadth of the American Episcopal version all drew me and keep me meeting God in an honest and joyful way.
I have been a speech-language pathologist for over 35 years, working in low-income public schools. I have mostly worked with non-verbal students who require pictures or machines as a way to communicate. For the last 4 years, I have been working as a reading tutor in low-income neighborhoods. I am currently working for ReadingQuest, a non-profit tutoring program, at our neighborhood schools: Nina Otero and Sweeney.
As far as church leadership goes, I have participated in and led just about every aspect of church life with the exception of money and buildings/grounds. I have been the junior warden, worship steward, education director, music team leader, liturgist, welcoming steward, preacher, EFM mentor, and discernment committee chair. Specific skills I would bring to the Bishop’s Committee include organizational abilities for both administration and worship, an understanding of our church as part of the larger world Church and a deep commitment to our call to service in God’s name.
We are blessed to have three Episcopal churches in the Santa Fe area and I attend services, bible studies and special events at all three every week. As part of the bigger church, opportunities at Holy Family for worship, study and service can grow. In addition, I see Holy Family as perfectly situated to support the families, businesses and services in the South side. In addition, with new housing going up quickly in the area, we will have plenty of opportunities to offer God’s love to our new sisters and brothers. What a privilege!
Dan Donoghue
I have been coming to Holy Family for over seven years and have received solace and guidance from each service. I came to Holy Family from a Catholic church and was received into the Episcopal church in 2019.
For the past ten years, I have been a project manager and sales manager at an IT consulting company, RESPEC, based out of Albuquerque. I sell our services nationwide, with a particular focus on data management. I have also served in the US Navy and the Department of State.
I hope to bring my years of experience in marketing and community service to the Bishop’s Committee and continue to expand our amazing and generous support to those less fortunate in our community.
I plan on supporting our community outreach efforts and work with the Vicar, the Warden and the rest of the committee to continue to grow our church in all our efforts to expand our reach.
My most memorable experience at Holy Family was the gift I received after I broke my foot. I was in a no-pressure cast and had to get around on a knee scooter. I was depressed and had trouble at home and at work. The first time I was able to make it back to a church service, the congregation presented me with a prayer blanket that I treasure to this day. It made all the difference in the world in my recovery.
