Our Parish Priests

Our current pastor is Fr. William Define, who was ordained June 29, 2002, on the Feast of Saints Peter & Paul. He was previously Regional Superior for Australia and New Zealand for the FSSP.  He was appointed pastor of Most Precious Blood Parish on January 1, 2013, and helped us to purchase our parish and grow significantly over the past few years.

Our associate pastor is Fr. Elijah Mundattuchundayil.


Fr. Angelo Van der Putten is an energetic and a passionate pastor who instills and fosters the traditions of the church and most of all the family. His traditional manners are visible in his reverence to the Mass and how he manages and loves the parish. He is now in Nigeria.

Other priests who have served our parish are: Fathers Ferguson, Semler, Picus, and McCambridge.


Father Peter Byrne acted as an on-call hospital chaplain for Hillcrest Medical Center in Tulsa and would travel a few hours south to administer to correctional facility inmates located in Stringtown, Oklahoma. Father Byrne is still very dear to everyone’s heart. He was dedicated to each member of the church. He initiated the St. Joseph Men’s Group to foster fatherhood and to promote family life. Fr. Angelo Van der Putten followed through and nurtured the group which today is one of strongest organizations within the parish.


Wolfgang Haas, then Bishop of Chur-Zurich, Switzerland ordained Father George Gabet a deacon in 1996. In 1997, Bishop John M D’Arcy of Fort Wayne and South Bend, Indiana, ordained him. He served as a curate in the Latin Mass parish in the Diocese of Tulsa. In 1998, Father Gabet was transferred to St. Patrick’s Parish in the Archdiocese of Omaha, for two years. He was reassigned to Tulsa where he remained for three years. He was later the District Superior of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter in North America.
