Get To Know Sr. Lieu!

My name is Sr. Lieu Nguyen and I am from Lovers of the Holy Cross of Los Angeles (LHC). My favorite thing about being a Religious Sister is being able to call myself a Bride of Christ. My vocation is the greatest blessing and is the most interesting thing about me. I have flourished in my love for God and His people, especially His young people who He calls me to serve. My love and life revolves around the Crucified Christ, hence the name, Lovers of the Holy Cross. Our Founder, Servant of God Bishop Lambert de la Motte, founded our Religious Institute in 1670 in Vietnam and he is currently on his way to Sainthood! I have been in Confirmation Ministry since 2014 and have loved every moment of it! I offer my Ministry to the intercession of Servant of God Bishop Lambert de la Motte… pray for all of us. I look forward to serving at St. Barnabas! ~Sr. Lieu
