Curious about discernment? Feeling a tug on your heart?

Join us for a morning of prayer, conversation, and community at Kenrick-Glennon Seminary.

These monthly meetings provide an entry-level opportunity for young men to begin asking questions about discernment and to meet others who are seeking the heart of Christ.

If you’re new to discernment but feel a tug on your heart, these meetings are for you.

Meetings are held monthly on Saturday mornings from 10:00 AM–12:30 PM at Kenrick-Glennon Seminary. Meet at the front doors. Lunch is included.

Each meeting includes discussion on an aspect of discernment, time for prayer, and lunch with the seminarians. Fr. Tony Ritter, a seminarian, and a guest priest speaker lead each meeting.

Come ask questions, pray, build community, and take the next step in discerning where God is calling you.

Some of our collegians spent a day volunteering at Camp Cana, where they helped clear out an attic, completed various service projects around the camp, and wrapped up the day with a friendly game of paintball. It was a wonderful opportunity for service, fraternity, and fellowship before their formation journey at Kenrick-Glennon Seminary.
