From Seminary to Prison to Priesthood || Fr. Gregoire Van Giang MEP || Vocare

- Опубликовано: 23 фев 2023
- In this episode of Vocare features the story of Rev. Fr. Gregoire Van Giang, who waited 26 years as a seminarian before his ordination to the priesthood. During the Vietnam war, although the seminary shut down, he continued to serve the Church underground by printing books and serving the parish. The seminarians were later arrested by the communist government of Vietnam and put under horrible and torturous prison conditions for three years. The dark nights of prison life made Fr. Gregoire question his faith in Christ and his call to the priesthood. Watch the incredible story of his priesthood.

@@thepeters5674 I'm from India sir. But I'm ready to be a missionary 👍
I was anointed by Fr Gregoire 'Greg' during the sacrament of Confirmation (Sec 4) back in 2006 in OLPS. He's a much happier person ever since coming over to Singapore to serve us all. Greg's a very chill, fun loving, bubbly, easy going priest and would love a good laugh once a while! Thanks Father for reminding us through your testimony for your never say die attitude, and the willingness to Say Yes to God even if all seems lost.
All good like you r testimony

Yours was a tough and challenging experience to the priesthood . Finally God has blessed your dreams and made his loving priest forever.
Such a wonderful calling at last.
Fr. Gregory, your life into priesthood was long and hard. But in the end, God showed you the way to serve Him.
From the time you got the host in prison, hidden by your mom in the bottom of a can of pickles, this served as an inspiration for your survival.
In the end, your chosen country, Singapore became your haven to serve the Lord.
God works in mysterious ways and He showed you the Way!
God bless you Fr. Gregory for your unwavering faith in the Lord!

Fr. Gregoire Van Giang MEP you are Blessed. You are Hero. Praise the Lord. Amen
God bless you Rev.father Gregorie more power more longlife
Thanks be to God🙏for this testimony.
God bless you Father Gregoire🙏
Couldn't stop crying!
How many times have we face difficulties and walk away from God and the Church?
How many times have we felt forsaken and question our sanity about believing in something we cannot see or touch and something that may or may not be true that happened more than 2000 years ago to a different culture that has nothing to do with me.
Everyone faces different and difficult situations and issues at times but when we put our faith in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and our sweet loving Mother Mary, everything will true out for the best. It may not be now, it may be for your children or your children's children but God will never forget us because he created us. Remember Ruth, she can never imagine that her great grandson would become King David.
Pray the rosary daily, do not break the 10 commandments, go for Sacrament of Confession regularly and let God take over the driving seat of your life. Amen.
P.S. would go to OLPS to visit Fr Greg. Amazing faith and survival story.
Amen’thank you Father for this inspiring challenging Life testimony experienced.God Bless you always in your Ministry 🙏
Pahimulin. Filipino. God is with you father. Thank god.
Fr Gregory very beautiful and inspiring testimony though very tough challenges you had to face. In this journey you experienced the presence of God in your life. May God continue to guide you in your mission that he has planned for you and bless you and your family members too stay blessed forever and ever 🙌🙏
Your story Fr,. Greg is inspiring. The discomfort you experienced interrogates the comfort we have in the seminary. May you inspire more seminarians not just to persevere but to live faithfully the way of Jesus.
