‘Come, be a Diocesan Seminarian!’

What is a Diocesan Seminarian? A diocesan seminarian is a young man who responds to God’s call to the priesthood within a specific diocese. Unlike members of religious orders, diocesan priests serve within the boundaries of a diocese, focusing on parish ministry, community outreach, and pastoral care. Seminarians undergo years of formation to develop spiritually, intellectually, and emotionally for this sacred vocation.
