Oblates of St. Joseph- Propaedeutic Formation Year

Happy birthday Sem. Andreieh. May God bless you abundantly with joy, peace, and good health. May your faith continue to be a guiding light in all that you do. May you find strength and comfort in His everlasting love. And may you constantly persevere and love the vocation that you have chosen.

Seminary life often begins with the desire to know everything about the divine. Yet, the most profound lesson is realizing how little we know compared to the vastness of God's grace.

Everything we learn about God should not make us proud but more humble and deeply compassionate toward others.

Seminary formation is not about filling the mind with facts. But true spiritual formation requires emptying yourself of pride, ego, and the need to be right. So, every time you realize how little you know about God, you take a step closer to Wisdom..

God does not call the qualified. He qualifies the called. All we have to do is to trust and be faithful the molding process.

In seminary, seminarians quickly learn that loving our neighbor isn't just a commandment; it’s a required daily practice.

Let us greet Sem. Axel Keiden Bigcas as he celebrates his birthday today!
