Learn about Seminary Formation

Vincentian formation offers opportunities for the development of the whole person: human, spiritual, intellectual, pastoral, and communal. It promotes readiness for mission, following the words of Jesus, as lived in the charism of our Founder, St. Vincent de Paul: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor.” (Lk. 4:18)
