Hello Everyone! My name is Rev. Joseph Esson. I’ve been ordained a priest since December of 1994. I am originally from Nigeria, from the Catholic Diocese of Lafia.  I ‘ve been with the Diocese of Tucson for approximately five years. I was transferred from San Manuel, where I was Pastor at St. Bartholomew for three years.

My hobbies are watching movies, exercising, and walking. I am currently studying for my Masters of Divinity.

My new assignment brought me to this lovely community of Tubac.

I am happy to be assigned to St Ann’s Parish & Its Missions Catholic Church and I welcome everyone to come and worship our Lord through song, prayer and the Holy Eucharist.

Be rest assured of my prayers for everyone in the community for our temporal and spiritual wellbeing, as I implore God’s favors and blessings upon you and your families.

Father Joseph
