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.
