Preparing Clergy
The Cardinal's Appeal provides $1.25 million to support our seminary system for the preparation of future priests and our diaconate program for the preparation of future deacons. As we pray that the number of vocations increases each year, we are committed to giving the priests and deacons of tomorrow the best possible philosophical, theological, and spiritual formation in Saint Joseph Seminary, Saint John Neumann Residence and Hall, our Pre-Seminary Program, and the Centers of Formation for our deacons. All of these institutions are, of course, key to the growth and spiritual progress of the Archdiocese over the years that lie ahead.
