Meet our Seminarians
Our seminarians are so grateful for your prayers, encouragement, and letters!
Let’s lift them up with prayer, love, and encouragement! Let them know we are thinking of them on their journey with a note, card, or small care package sent to the address below.
Take a moment to pray for each seminarian by name as they journey toward the priesthood. Your spiritual support means the world. A simple Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be offered for their vocations can make a powerful difference.

Our diocesan seminarians are beginning their summer assignments. Summer assignments are a vital part of their formation, helping them grow in ministry, experience parish life firsthand, and deepen their call to the priesthood. We’re blessed to have four of them serving in parishes this summer.
Austin Young - St. Paul
Brett Reggio - Cathedral of St. John Berchmans
Angel Gomez - St. Jude
Alan Landeros- St. Joseph, Shreveport
Tristan Frisk is in Little Rock completing his Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE), a key part of formation focused on pastoral care in hospital settings.

Please keep all of these men in your prayers as they continue preparing for a life of service to the Church!
