Rev. Paul-Cuong Phan
Vicar

I was born in Saigon, the former capital of South Viet Nam, in 1962. When the communists took over the whole country in 1975, my family escaped out to sea and was rescued by the U.S. Navy. We were among the first 125,000 Vietnamese refugees that settled in America. I went through six High Schools in San Jose and graduated from Independence High in 1980. Afterward, I worked as P.C. Board Designer for nine years while attending some colleges. After much discernment, I decided to enter the seminary to study for the Diocese of San Jose. I was sent to St. Joseph Seminary in 1990, and graduated at the University of San Diego in 1994. Then, I attended St. Patrick’s Seminary & University to be ordained a priest in 1999. My first three years of ministry had been at St. Joseph of Cupertino parish. I was later assigned to St. Patrick’s Proto Cathedral with the Vietnamese Personal Parish. I served Christ the King Parish from July 2005 until I was assigned to be a parochial vicar at St. Victor Parish in July of 2008. It is a privilege and honor to serve God through serving God’s people. Indeed, I have found true happiness in living my priesthood.
