Jose Panthaplamthottiyil, pastor for St. Elizabeth Ann Seaton Catholic Church since January 2020, is a fan of “High School Musical” (he has seen the original and both sequels). He also loves the movie “La-La Land.”
Born in India in a town where almost everyone was Catholic, Panthaplamthottiyil decided as a young boy that he wanted to become a priest, and he achieved that goal at the young age of 24. He studied journalism in the 1970s in the United States, has written multiple inspirational books and still writes a column for an Indian newspaper every week ever since 1986. He served SEAS in short assignments in 1989, 1994, 1995 and 1997-1998 before his current appointment. Serving with him are Bartholomiej Gadaj and Mason Wiggins.
