Fr. Peter
Saucedo

Fr. Peter Saucedo, Los Angeles native from the San Gabriel Valley. Raised in the City of Baldwin Park, CA. I’m one of five siblings, from immigrant parents of Mexican decent. I was raised in a devout Catholic home and I credit my faith to my parents, who at a very young age taught us who Jesus Christ was. During my time in High School I was involved in my local parishes Life Teen youth group.  After high school I served as a missionary with NET Ministries, for a year I traveled around the country giving retreats to teenagers. After serving as a missionary I attended Benedictine College in Atchison Kansas where I received degrees in Psychology, Philosophy, and Theology. I entered St. John’s seminary in Summer of 2012 and was ordained to the priesthood on June 2, 2018. My first parish assignment was at St. Helen, South Gate, CA.
