Saint Thomas Aquinas Major Seminary Makurdi

11TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME. YEAR A
THEME: “IF YOU LISTEN AND OBEY MY VOICE, YOU SHALL BE MY TREASURED POSSESSION AMONG ALL PEOPLE.”
HOMILY BY: REV. FR. ALOYSIUS ONAH

Listening is a spiritual discipline and an act of faith that demands both obedience and intentionality. In the Gospel, those who truly listened to Jesus followed Him with clear intention. They left everything, became zealous to spread the Gospel, and committed themselves to work in His field so as to continue His mission.In our daily struggles of life, let us strive to add our names among the disciples of Jesus by listening attentively, obeying faithfully, and responding wholeheartedly to His call.

As the seminarians continue with their second semester examinations, we pray for sharp retention of memory, divine wisdom, and clarity of mind. 🙏🏻

Also as we celebrate our last
Sunday of the session, we prepare for our apostolic work in the Lord’s vineyard, may God’s abundant grace, strength, and comforting presence go with us and remain with us always.
AMEN 🙏🏻

🎊🎉HURRAY🎊🎉
Heartfelt Congratulations to Our Latest Graduants! We rejoice with our dear Theology 4 brothers who have successfully completed their seminary studies, and our Philosophy 3 brothers as they step into the pastoral field.

As you depart from our community to serve in His vineyard, we commit you into God’s hands and ask all our students, staff, and alumni to keep them in your prayers.
Congratulations once again!
The harvest is plentiful go forth and shine as lights in the world.

Thank you all for being part of this family. May God richly bless you and reward your kindness. 🙏

Heads bowed, hearts lifted praying to God for wisdom, calm, and success.

End of May Devotion/Rosary Procession. 📿
As the Marian Month of May draws to a close, we united in prayer and procession, walking with the Rosary in our hands and Our Lady in our hearts. With hymns of praise and beads of faith, we honoured the Queen of Heaven who leads us ever closer to her Divine Son.
May our Blessed Mother, the Virgin Mary, continue to intercede for us, for our seminary community, our families, the Church, and our nation. May she obtain for us purity of heart, zeal for souls, and perseverance in our vocation. AMEN🙏🏻

Ave Maria, gratia plena 🙏🏻

We shall gather as one family to honour the Blessed Virgin Mary through the Holy Rosary.
