Study is designed to fulfill ten core competencies.
Throughout seninary training, emphasis is placed on integrating all learning in the context of what it means to one's life as a Priest of the 21st Century to serve a world that is ever more complex and frenetic. Admission to the Seminary is open to all who bring an open heart, a sincere desire to learn, a willingness to serve, and a love of the teachings of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. While formation centers on Christic spirituality, a wholesome and real ecumenism and inter-faith appreciation and dialogue is stressed throughout. The Church ordains men and women, and is blind to matters of gender, race, socio-economic status, and sexual orientation. What does matter is maturity, self-examination, and a commitment to being an authentic servant.
