Annual Dinner

Celebrating the Seminary

For 17 years, our Annual Seminary Dinner has been an amazing opportunity to welcome people into our mission. The pandemic may prevent us from gathering a thousand people at the Wisconsin Center this year, but it will not stop our efforts to share the Seminary's good news with everyone!

We will live stream our Annual Dinner program from the front steps of the Seminary on Friday, September 25, beginning at 6:30 p.m. CDT. The program will be streamed for free viewing right here on our website. It is expected to last about 45 minutes. Tune in early at 6:15 if you'd like to meet our seminarians first!

Please go to this page to register for online viewing.

A very limited number will be allowed on a first registered, first served basis. Bring a lawn chair and enjoy the show! Guests on our front lawn will be asked to respect proper social distancing. There will be no tent or protection from the elements. In the event of inclement weather, we will regretfully have to cancel the viewing party and move the seminarians indoors.

Please register to attend in person.

We are blessed with 61 seminarians this year. These men are here because they want to serve the Lord. Please help them become holy priests by supporting their formation. Your sponsorship of our virtual event will make a profound difference to them and to a world in need.

"With their whole beings the angels are servants and messengers of God." - St. Augustine

All gifts of $1,500.00 or more will be recognized onscreen during the event.

(Gifts must be received by September 11 to be included.)
