On this day, we give thanks to the Lord for the 52 men who've come from across the Midwest to Immaculate Heart of Mary Seminary for the 2021-2022 formation and academic year. We pray that this place is a blessing to them and that while here, they feel the love of God, the guidance of the faculty and staff, and the support of their brother seminarians as they continue answering this most sacred call.                                                                                                    "Lord Jesus Christ, we pray for these men whom You have called to discern priesthood. We beg Your continued blessings on our dioceses and families. Call forth even more men of generous spirit and fervent love whom You desire for this holy work. Amen."
St. Joseph, pray for us.
