Last week, Archbishop Burke reflected on those men from the Archdiocese of St. Louis who are responding to the call to be shepherds of the flock, after the Heart of Jesus, by entering the seminary. Today he talks to us about the other bishops and superiors of religious communities who send seminarians to Kenrick-Glennon Seminary and on the importance of having an archdiocesan seminary.
It's interesting to note that of the 113 seminarians receiving priestly formation at Kenrick-Glennon Seminary, 55 are from other dioceses. Archbishop Burke discusses where these men are from and the trust that their bishops and superiors have in the St Louis seminary by sending these men here for their priestly formation.
It's always encouraging to learn more about those who are answering the call to the Holy Priesthood, and of those who dedicate their lives to ensure that these men receive the best in their priestly formation. We are asked to help support these men, the dedicated faculty, and our seminary by our fervent prayers and other means, when possible.
