His alma maters include the Graduate Theological Union, Indiana University and Shorter College.

Victor is an active interdenominational presenter. Committed to inclusive language and congregational song, he recently led conferences in Montreat, North Carolina and Zephyr Cove, Nevada. Victor is an exponent of the Iona Community and InterPlay / Body Wisdom.

He is married to Lou Grosso. They enjoy science fiction, audio-described movies, red wine, David Sedaris and whitewater rafting. They are tolerated as necessary house guests by an outspoken Schnauzer named Dervish.

Steve Marlowe, Finance and Accounting

Steve Marlowe is a native of Chicago, where he was educated (University of Illinois Chicago), liberated (moved to Boys Town and then came out), and spiritually emancipated at Good Shepherd Parish MCC in 1979. A bookkeeper by trade, he has worked and volunteered at several non-profits over the years. At GSP he held service positions as Deacon, Lay Preacher, and Board Vice-Moderator. He also founded the Contemporary Gospel Singers, and Brother (a queer spirit rock band), both of which headlined Chicago Pride and many other events. He moved to San Francisco in 1989, and immediately joined MCCSF and the Worship & Praise ensemble. From there he became involved in various communities, coordinating over 100 retreats and workshops focusing on community building. When not reconciling bank statements, you can find him playing guitars at Taizé and Worship & Praise, or obeying his four-pawed boys Malcolm and Mortimer.
