THE REV. JAMES C. DANNALS, Interim VicarJim has served St. Cyprian's since December 2023. He grew up in Central Florida and is a graduate of Florida State University and Yale University Divinity School. He has been married to Carolyn Hoffman Dannals since 1974. They are the parents of three sons and have four grandchildren.
Beginning in 1979, he served six congregations of The Episcopal Church in Florida, North Carolina, Massachusetts and Virginia. Since his retirement in 2013, he has served four congregations in North Carolina, South Carolina and now Florida. Jim believes that the heart of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is about relationship and not ideology. He also believes that the Gospel is inherently political; but not partisan political: "The Gospel is inherently political because, among other things, it is about the healthy sharing of power." He is grateful to be in St. Augustine and serving a congregation that desires to grow more deeply into Christ and reach out to serve the community in love. |
REV'D STEVE SEIBERT, DeaconSteve came to St. Cyprian’s in July of 2022. He was ordained to the diaconate in April 2021. He previously served on vestries at St. James, Ormond Beach and Trinity, St. Augustine, including positions as Junior and Senior Warden.

Steve was born in Pennsylvania, moved to Ormond Beach at two, and attended Catholic School for twelve years, graduating from Father Lopez (Daytona Beach). He served in the Navy after of high school. Upon discharge, he worked as a printer and motel desk clerk and traveled a circuitous route (four colleges and universities) to a Bachelor’s in Elementary Education. He taught for seven years and then completed a 30-year career with the US Postal Service as a letter carrier. He is thankful to his wife Leila, his bride of 42 years, who brought him into a relationship with Jesus through the Episcopal Church. For him, there is a powerful yet gentle invitation in this Church that comes straight from the heart of Jesus Christ. Steve and Leila have two children and four grandchildren. They value the time they are able to visit with them; they love traveling with Maine being a place that speaks to their souls. They recently traveled to Ireland, a place that touched both their hearts and their spirits. |

HOLLY HORAHAN, Office AdministratorOriginally from Tampa, Holly has lived in St. Augustine for 12 years. She started work at St. Cyprian’s in late 2007, beginning with just a few hours a week in the office, however, as the congregation grew in Spirit and numbers, there was more and more to be done. Holly is officially the Office Administrative Assistant, but she wears many hats including Bookkeeper, Wedding Coordinator, and occasional Landscaper. She is in the office Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 9:00 am - 4:30 pm, but it is not unusual to see her around the church on Saturday for a wedding or planting some new flowers.
