New Administrator Assigned to St. Mother Theodore Guerin Parish

St. Mother Theodore Guerin Parishioners,

I am happy to share that Father Ton Nguyen has been appointed as the new administrator of St. Mother Theodore Guerin as of July 1, 2026. Fr. Ton is a gifted priest who has most recently served as Associate Pastor of Holy Name Cathedral. As administrator, Fr. Ton will oversee the pastoral and administrative governance of our parish, with support from a mentor while the diocese continues to assess the right placement of a new pastor for our parish.

It has been a joy of my priesthood to serve St. Mother Theodore Guerin and I am confident that Fr. Ton will do a wonderful job in continuing all the great work that has been going on in this parish over the years.

Fr. Ton will share more with everyone in a letter to our parish soon. I ask all of you to keep him in your prayers. Coming into a new parish is both exciting and daunting for anyone, whether you’re a priest or a parishioner. We must seek God’s grace and ask Him to strengthen Fr. Ton as he says goodbye to one community and accepts the Lord’s call to shepherd ours. Let us also pray that God fills our hearts with gratitude for Fr. Ton and that we may continue to trust in His Providence for the renewal of our local Church.

Fr. Paul Cao
Pastor of St. Mother Theodore Guerin Parish
