BIOGRAPHY

Fr. Thanh Quoc Pham was born on July 13, 1980 in Vietnam. He is the youngest of nine children. He came to America in 1992 and lived in Philadelphia with his whole family, which took 20 plus years to reunite in America. He was an altar server for many years, which served as an inspiration and a motivation for him to enter the seminary to study for the priesthood. He entered Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary, Wynnewood, PA after he graduated from Roxborough High School in 1999. He spent 8 years of priestly formation at the seminary prior to his priesthood ordination on May 19, 2007 by His Excellency Joseph A. Galante, Bishop of Camden at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish, Glassboro, NJ. He was assigned to Saint Rose of Lima Parish in Haddon Heights as his first priestly assignment and served 4 years there. Thereafter, he was assigned to Incarnation Parish, Mantua. Recently, he was appointed as Administrator of The Most Precious Blood Parish in W. Collingswood. On August 5, 2013, he was assigned to Saint Peter Parish, Merchantville as a parochial vicar. He was then assigned to The Parish of Saint Monica in Atlantic City for 3 years. Currently, he is assigned here at Christ the Redeemer Parish. He is delighted to have the privilege to serve the People of God as a priest. He hopes to bring God’s love to you, as you enrich your personal relationship with God. Lastly, he asks for your prayerful support and be merciful with his shortcomings. He said, “I am a human, too. I do not have the prefix ‘St.’ in front of my name yet.”
