Ordination of Father Henry Nguyen, SCJ
On December 17, Fr. Henry Bùi Nguyen, SCJ, was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Thomas Thái Thành Nguyen, auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Orange. The ordination took place at St. Columban Catholic Church in Garden Grove, CA.
Fr. Henry is 33 and professed his first vows with the Priests of the Sacred Heart (Dehonians) in 2018. He credits his father, Douglas Nguyen, for nurturing his faith and his vocation. “My father, since as far back as I can remember, has reminded me of the importance of prayer,” said Henry. “Even when I went to the seminary, was ordained to the diaconate, my dad has continued to remind me to pray. PRAY EVERY DAY!”
His first assignment will be as Vocation Director of the US Province, while continuing to serve at St. Martin of Tours parish in Franklin, WI, where he did his diaconate internship. READ MORE AT: https://dehoniansusa.org/feature-stories/a-new-scj-priest/
