Local ministry offers 100 tests for the coronavirus

On July 10, St. Joseph Primary Care, which operates a clinic on the campus of St. Ann Church, offered drive-thru COVID-19 testing at the Clayton church.

“As you know … testing is in limited supply, but thanks be to God, we are blessed to have these tests for the people of God,” said Peter Le, who co-founded the clinic with his wife, Dr. ThuHuong Trinh.

Le said the clinic is planning additional drive-thru testing at other Catholic churches in the diocese.

“Peter and his wife are here every Tuesday serving the community,” said Father Peter Grace, C.P., pastor of St. Ann. “It’s been terrific ministry, especially for the elderly and the poor.”
