A FAMILY AFFAIR
School of Theological Studies


“My husband and I are studying together at Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary; he is currently in the Diaconate Formation program, and I am studying for my master’s degree in Theology. This is a unique opportunity for us to learn and grow on our faith journey together. The faculty and staff at St. Charles have been wonderful. They are supportive and faithful to the teachings of the Catholic Church. The academics have been rigorous, but we have learned a tremendous amount during our time at St. Charles. I’ve found this journey to be a time of personal reflection and growth. The information I am learning in class has helped me become a better wife and mother and will benefit my service in the parish. Through my faith, I’m able to rely more deeply on Jesus. As He remains at the center of my life, everything else falls into its proper place.
I’m deeply grateful for your contributions, not only financially, but also your prayerful support given so generously to St. Charles Borromeo Seminary.
The formation of our future priests, deacons, religious, and lay people is a vital part of our community. God is loving and merciful. He desires a loving relationship with us. Through the sacraments, our priests help make that possible. Thank you for your support of the Seminary Appeal.”
