The Office of Vocations is happy to introduce you to Tuan Nguyen, our newest seminarian from Vietnam. Tuan has two younger siblings, a brother and sister, and is 29 years old. His home parish in Vietnam is called Khe Gat. Like our other seminarian from Vietnam, Hoan Tran, Tuan has completed his philosophy studies and after studying English at Divine Word College in Iowa looks forward to continuing theology at Saint Meinrad Seminary.
Please feel free to write notes of encouragement to our two Vietnamese seminarians as they do their English studies. Divine Word College is located at:
102 Jacoby Dr W, Epworth, IA, 52045
Please pray for all eight of our seminarians as they start back at school for the spring semester.
