Students who have yet to receive an undergraduate degree are enrolled in the collegiate program of studies that can last a maximum of four years. Both programs prepare the student for the study of theology in a major seminary. By visiting hospitals and nursing homes, feeding the poor at the Red Door, working with youth and promoting vocations, students give fitting Christian witness and at the same time receive a taste of real ministry. Community life remains a great support system for discerning and nurturing a vocation. Community life gives each student the opportunity to experience life in a setting whereby one lives beyond the individual.
Students gain strength and insight through the sharing of meals, prayers, education and recreation.
Every Friday night the community gathers together for a planned communal event. You feed the flock with your Word and Sacrament. You know the flock and call each by name. Bless this little flock, our family, gathered around this table. Lead us through the everyday changes and challenges of life.
