Celebrate Vocations Awareness Week at the Fifth Annual Seminarian Brunch Fundraiser

On Saturday, November 8, the Very Reverend Christopher M. Martel, Director of Vocations, will be hosting our fifth Seminarian Brunch Fundraiser. This event provides the public an opportunity to meet our seminarians and share brunch while supporting vocations within the diocese. Each year, the diocese spends nearly $500,000 on tuition and room and board for our seminarians – a little more than $100 a day for each young man studying to be a priest. As many of our priests are retiring, the diocese is investing in these seminarians to help with their formation and for the future needs of the church.

The brunch includes great food, live music, silent auction items, the viewing of our new diocesan vocations video, and much more.

Registrations are now closed but donations can still be made to support Seminarians by filling out the form below.
