CAMPUS LIFE:  SPIRITUAL FORMATION
 


SPIRITUAL LIFE: One must be a good Christian before he can become a good priest. So, the seminarian should develop those values imitative of Christ. The Spiritual Director has the role of implementing the formation of the Christian community of the seminary. By his conferences given to students and especially by his individual direction, he encourages this spiritual formation. It is his responsibility to provide the unity of direction necessary for the priestly life through the integration of study, apostolic activity and prayer.

COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES: Seminarians participate on a voluntary basis in part-time apostolic work during the year. This provides an invaluable experience in preparation for the student’s future ministry. The main apostolates are: Blood Bank, religious instruction in parish communities, human concern projects, such as Catholic Relief Services, visiting local hospitals and nursing homes, and youth apostolate work.
