Saint Agnes is blessed to welcome two visiting seminarians, Samuel Le and Matthew Thomas Lamb, to our parish community. Each brings a unique story of faith, formation, and discernment, and we are grateful for the opportunity to get to know them during their time with us.

Samuel Le was born and raised in Saigon, Vietnam, and his journey to the seminary includes a move to Arkansas, a growing connection with Catholic Campus Ministry, and a powerful call to the priesthood during a Jesuit retreat. His story is one of courage, trust, and a desire to serve the Church through parish life and faith formation.

Matthew Thomas Lamb grew up in Little Rock with a strong Catholic community and a deep appreciation for Catholic education. From drama classes and public speaking to a love of reading, travel, and authentic Italian cuisine, Matthew’s story shows how God can work through many experiences to guide a vocation.
