Dear Forum

****Moderators, if this thread isnt in the right place, please move it 😃 ********************

So, i was conversing with the Brother Guardian of the Knights of the Holy Eucharist. I know him, the community and the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament very well. Anyhow, he told me that Bishop Baker said no more Priests from the area as there is going to be 10 Priests in that area alone (a good thing! 👍). Also, the government in America is really strict right now with getting people Religious Workers visas. So my plan to join them at 18, may not happen. Instead, he gave me another posssiblity. He could potentially send me here right after high school sck.ca/pages/contact_us.htm
😃

This is what i’ve wanted. Also, he sent me the email, outlining the above possibilty, and i recieved it after i came home from serving Sunday Vigil Mass, where before vesting I prayed “LORD, let THY WILL be done”-concerning my vocation.

Could this perhaps be a sign? or a mere coincidence ? :confused:😦

I want to be a Priest so bad, so anyway to my initial question

I’ve been to three discernment overnights at Sacred heart Major Seminary, I am starting to really love/enjoy Philosophy and i plan to take a course in it this coming year in Grade 12, I also love the truths of my Faith, so im not too worried about Theology.

What does it take to suceed in Seminary?
What can i expect my studies to be like?
Im scared of waking up late and missing MASS, Morning prayer and Class, is this a silly fear? :confused:

I love Prayer and the fact that there will be a assigned schedule will help me be organized to a greater extent, and i desire to serve and marry CHRIST and HIS Church. I am sincere in what i say and my plans.

HELP PLEASE!
 
What a BEAUTIFUL seminary!!! Sheesh, it makes ME want to be a priest and I’m female!!!

😉 JK, but that is a seriously lovely campus!

Is there any tuition or would you be accepted to attend as a seminary student with scholarships, aid, etc.?

God bless you in your discernment!
 
Tutition, but i dont know how much yet :confused: im gonna have to find out!! Please pray for me and thank you!! I need every prayer i can get!! 👍:eek::):D:p:D
 
Youll succeed if you realize that you’re at seminary for God, not for yourself. Remember, you might be want to be a priest, but God may not want you to be. You really cant be entirely convinced, thats why seminary is a few years. Not just because of how much material is taught, but how long it takes to discern and be sure that being a priest is what God desires. There are people who are convinced they are meant to be priests but left seminary after the first few years because they realized God didnt call them to the priesthood
