Fr.
Peter Hoang Do, OP
I was born in 1977 in a small town about fifty miles south of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
In 1985, my father and I escaped from Vietnam on boat and landed in Malaysia.
We lived in the Philippines and in Malaysia for a year, before we were able to come
to the U.S. and live with my uncle in Portland, Oregon.
I went to college at Portland
State University in 1995. After graduation, I went to University of Utah for
graduate studies. It was here that I met the friars of the Western Dominican
Province. I was drawn to the Dominican life with its contemplative and active dimensions,
and the focus on study, community, prayer, and preaching.
