Sharon Spence-Wilcox is a cradle Catholic who was born and raised in Jamaica and has been a resident of Seattle for nearly 30 years. She embraces her strong relationships with family, lifelong learning as a community college faculty librarian, and the joy of serving as a flawed yet faith-filled lay minister at St. Therese Parish. Sharon is a proud member of the Companions of Color cohort of BIPOC leaders being formed in Ignatian spirituality and spiritual companionship.
Mercy Lazo is an Ilokana mom who moved to this country about 30 years ago. At present, she is a healthcare worker in supportive housing. She considers St. Therese Church her spiritual home.
Josie Dean is a native Seattlite and long time parishioner at Immaculate Conception Church. After retiring from a career in healthcare she now spends time assisting in the OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults) program at ICC and volunteering at St. Francis House.
