Fr. Sebastian Pereira SJ

Parish Priest, Our Lady of Miracles Church, Ratnagiri

Fr. Seby, as he is fondly called, was born on New Year’s Day in 1983 in Londa to simple, devout, farming parents. After completing his high school education in his home town Londa, he completed his further college education in Belgaum and Goa. During his college studies he was also working in a private firm to sustain himself. It was here in his work place that he experienced God’s Call and this vocation was further strengthened by the prayers and support of his parents and his uncle Rev. Fr. Augustine. Fr. Seby’s brother, Fr. Peter Pereira is also serving as a Carmelite Priest in Goa and both were ordained to the Priesthood on 30th December 2017 by Bishop Peter Machado (now Archbishop of Bangalore).
