Archdiocese of San Antonio Department of Communication Archdiocese of San Antonio response to inquiry regarding SNAP The Archdiocese of San Antonio does not have any records or reports concerning allegations of sexual abuse of minors here against the four individuals named by SNAP March 8. Also, these men were not priests of the archdiocese: Gerald Funcheon was a Crosiers priest and later a priest of the Diocese of Lafayette, Indiana, who also served as a military chaplain; Joseph (Jesse) Gutierrez- Cervantes was a member of the Christian Brothers; Robert S. Koerner was an Oblate priest; and Michael Charland was an Oblate as well. In San Antonio, Charland was at Oblate College of the Southwest and Koerner was at the Oblate Madonna Residence under the auspices of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate. Funcheon was assigned to Lackland Air Force Base and Wilford Hall Medical Center by the U.S. Military Ordinariate. Former Brother Gutierrez-Cervantes was at Christ the King Parish in 1970, and later at Cordi-Marian Sisters Villa. The other person identified, Galeb Mokarzel, was included on the San Antonio list on Jan. 31 with a credible allegation of sexual abuse of a minor. He is under the direct supervision of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate and retired without ministry in 1997. He is living under supervision with a safety plan at an Oblate retirement facility. Anyone with any information regarding these individuals is asked to initially contact law enforcement, and then the archdiocesan Office of Victim Assistance and Safe Environment at (210) 734-7786 or toll-free (877) 700-1888. Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller, MSpS, and the staff of the archdiocese are committed to assisting in the healing process for victims and survivors of sexual abuse by clergy or church personnel. # 2718 West Woodlawn Ave. — San Antonio, TX 78228 — www.archsa.org .
