Our seminarians come from all over the diocese and in some cases outside of it. They come from large families and small ones, some right out of high school and others after starting a career. They are responding to a call from God to enter seminary, not knowing what might come after that. Get to know them here, as well as when they are serving in your parishes or at diocesan events. See what they have to say about discerning their vocation. Pray for them as they continue to discern God’s call and prepare themselves to be our future priests.

Learn about the formation they receive.

This week we will be celebrating Religious Freedom This week we will be celebrating Religious Freedom Week. Each day the USCCB invites us to pray, reflect, and act on a particular intention.

"Religious Freedom Week affords us the opportunity to pray and reflect on the value of the right of religious freedom in our lives and to promote it in society. Religious freedom is a precious gift to be treasured and protected by all, and it is my hope that we all celebrate it accordingly during Religious Freedom Week, and always."
