- Fr. Michael Baricuatro, Pastor
  
  Rev. Michael Baricuatro came to St. Rose after serving as the pastor of St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Paradise, CA. Fr. Michael finished theologate study at St. Patrick’s Seminary and University, Menlo Park, CA.
  
  He was ordained a priest by Bishop Soto on May 31, 2010 at the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrameno. He served as a parochial vicar at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Chico, CA for two years, then at St. Isadore Catholic Church, Yuba City for two years.
  
  After four years of being a parochial vicar, he was appointed as parish administrator at St. Thomas More Parish, Paradise, CA, then appointed as a Pastor at the same parish.
- Fr. Michael Estaris
  
  I was born in Pangasinan, Philippines, and am the youngest of eight children raised by a widowed mother. I went to St. Vincent de Paul College Seminary and Adamson University under the direction of the Vincentian Fathers and Brothers of the Philippine Province for his Philosophical Studies (College Seminary).
  
  In 2005, I joined the Diocese of Sacramento as a seminarian and attended St. Patrick’s Seminary & University in Menlo Park for my Theological Studies. On May 2010 I received the Sacrament of Sacred Orders.
  
  I was assigned as the parochial vicar of St. John Vianney Parish in Rancho Cordova (2010-2012) and of St. Vincent Ferrer Parish in Vallejo (2012-2014). I was also a priest-in-residence at the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament in Downtown Sacramento (2016-2017) and started to work full-time as a staff member of the Tribunal Office at the Pastoral Center.
  
  I am glad to join the parish community of St. Rose of Lima Parish as your parochial vicar, while also continuing to work as a member of the staff of the Tribunal Office.
  
  Trivia: “Fr. Mikel” is the unofficial spelling for my name, which started during my college seminary to distinguish my name from the other four seminarians also named Michael.

- Deacon Mike Turner
  
  Deacon Michael Turner was ordained in the Sacramento Diocese in June of 2014. He is a retired Highway Patrolman of 29 years and Army Military Police for 3 ½ years before that. He and his wife, Barbara, married in 1973 had five children and moved to Rocklin in 1984. They now have 7 grandchildren.
  
  St. Rose became their home immediately with all children graduating from the school. All the children and two of their grandchildren have served in one capacity or another at St. Rose Church as altar servers, lectors, choir members, extra ordinary ministers to the altar, religious ed instructors, and life teen core members.
  
  Deacon Mike continues ministry with serving on the altar, Baptisms, and funeral liturgies. His passion for the poor and homeless remains relentless as he continues work with St. Vincent de Paul as their current spiritual director, and he and Barbara take mission trips to 4^th world countries.
  As a couple, the Turners, remain committed to religious education, teaching RCIA and helping out where needed. They are also the Bereavement Counselor trainers for the Diocese of Sacramento.
  
  As members of Placer People of Faith and the Solidaridad at St. Rose they are educated on and seek social justice for all people.
  
  Probably the ministry that most touches their hearts is the Journey in the Spirit Ministry where they are privileged to witness people when they are scared, sad, lonely, sick, and dying.
  
  As Charismatic Catholics and Cursillitas they pray for the guidance and the grace of the Holy Spirit to do only that which God wants them to do.
