Three seminarians from the Diocese of Sioux Falls are currently working through the final years of studies before ordination to the priesthood, often called major seminary. These years are marked with intense study of theology during the configuration stage and first-hand experience among the faithful as a transitional deacon during the final vocational synthesis stage.
By entering the deep formation major seminary offers, the men below have taken another step closer to committing their lives to serving Christ as a priest in our diocese. Please remember these men and all our seminarians in your prayers throughout the year.
