Staff

The Rev. Jan F. Hosea, Priest in Charge

As a lifelong Episcopalian, Jan felt the call to ordained ministry in the early 2000.  Beginning work at the Cathedral of St. John, Jan served as LEM, Verger, Jr. Warden (twice) and various committees including the Capital Campaign Committee in 1998. After ordination to the Diaconate in 2009, she served the Cathedral and St. Chads and subsequently was ordained at St. John’s to the Sacred Order of Priests in 2010.

In the following years she was Associate Rector at St. Chad’s for 13 and half years (with 16 months as Interim Rector). Following “retirement” from that position, she accepted a call to St. Andrew’s Las Cruces.

Prior to ordination, Jan was an executive for nonprofit organizations, a Fund Raiser (had her own consulting Co,) most recently serving The University of New Mexico School of Law and Presbyterian Healthcare Foundation.

Jan has taken her ordination vows seriously to serve the greater church and has been on the Cathedral Chapter, Disciplinary Board, CLAD, and COMB.  She currently is on the Standing Committee and Trustees of the Property. She also served as the Chaplain for the DDRG Daughters of the King.

The Rev. Dan Tuton, Assisting Priest 

Lindsay Jewett: Office Administrator

I was born in Orange, California, and I moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 2005.  I have three grown kids.  I graduated with honors from CNM in August of 2016 with my Office Assistant certificate and I’ve enjoyed working here many years, and feel honored to be part of the staff.

Julie Nielsen:  Treasurer

Julie Nielsen (nee Porter) was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota in a blizzard.  

She was an Air Force brat who moved around in her youth.  Once the family settled in Albuquerque, New Mexico, she decided no more moving; this was home and it has been ever since. She was raised in the Methodist church. Her dad was an usher and adult Sunday school teacher. Her mother helped with the altar and communion. She was baptized and confirmed in the Methodist Church when she was twelve years old. 

Julie married Dan Nielsen in 1994 and started attending St. Mary’s with Dan and her two young stepdaughters, Leah and Danah.  Both girls served as acolytes as did Julie and she became a reader and very involved at the altar including serving on the Vestry and two different Discernment Committees. She was a long time attendee of Sam Stearns’ bible study classes as well. In 1998, Beth Nielsen was born to Dan and Julie and she was raised at St. Mary’s and served as an acolyte just like her sisters. Julie was confirmed in the Episcopal Church by Bishop Kelshaw.  

Julie is very committed to St Mary’s Episcopal Church and hopes to contribute to the growth and prosperity of this parish.  She currently is a faithful contributor at Jack Blenk’s Sunday morning Bible Study. 

Julie has a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from the University of New Mexico Robert O. Anderson School of Management.  She has made a career in financial institutions and currently serves as Vice President of Finance at Sandia Laboratory Federal Credit Union.  She is an avid fitness buff and reader. She loves her dog, is very close with all three of their daughters and spends time with her three grandchildren whenever she can. Her parents (Dad – Ken, Mom – JoAnn and Stepdad – Bob) are a very big part of her life as well.  She is a lifelong learner and hopes to continue to grow and learn.

Julie also serves on the St. Mary’s Vestry.

Vestry

Barbara Kailey:  Senior Warden

One of my favorite things about serving on our Vestry is establishing and strengthening the bonds with the brothers and sisters serving alongside me.  Deep connections are formed while we are working on the “business” side of St. Mary’s.  It is my pleasure and privilege to be serving another term. I am a native New Mexican and a life-long Episcopalian.  I have recently retired and am mindfully and deliberately trying to NOT fill my calendar. That is easier said than done!  At St. Mary’s, I am active with Daughters of the King and our Finance Committee.

Bill Bonahoom:  Junior Warden

Linda Konkel

While I was not raised an Episcopalian, I have spent most of my adult life attending the Episcopalian church.  I have been a member of St. Mary’s for the last four years, where I have come to embrace the faith as if born to it.  I retired from Sandia National Laboratories where I worked 25 years as an analyst. My husband, Marty, also retired from Sandia after 36 years.  We have been blessed to be married for the last 33 years.  I am a proud stepmother to three wonderful adult children and four of the most wonderful grandchildren I could ever ask for. We also share a very spoiled little Pug who gives us a lot of happiness.  I am a member of the Daughter’s of the King, the Altar Guild, and serve as a Lay Eucharistic Visitor.  I am also working on updating the website for St. Mary’s.  I was honored when Mother Jan asked me if I would serve on the Vestry and I look forward to serving St. Mary’s with God’s help.  Linda
