I am in the proccess of applying to Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary in Philadelphia. I visited once and have heard good things about it. Just wondering if anyone else knows anything about it, is it as conservative as I have heard? I sure hope it is.
God Bless

Hey there...I saw your message on phatmass.com and wanted to drop you an email. I think it's wonderful that you are discerning a vocation to religious life! Be confident of my prayers for you.
I just joined a Benedictine monastery in January to begin my vocation in becoming a monk. If you have any questions or want to discuss anything in regards to religious life don't hesitate to email me at cspb2004@yahoo.com. Check out my online Vocation Journal I began before entering the monastery and continue to keep up to date where I chronicle my journey in religious life. You can check it out at: [url="http://www.myvocation.blogdrive.com"]http://www.myvocation.blogdrive.com[/url] Peace, Ryan

Hate posting in old threads, but I'd like to put a plug in for St. Joseph's Seminary and Newman Theological College where I attend. Since the new Archbishop came 4 or so years ago, the college has booted or retired all the liberal professors, culminating in the replacement of the liberal, lay president of the college with the rector from the seminary. There are lots of people howling that the college is becoming too clerical in theology. The priests in charge now as Dean and as President are both some of the best orthodox priests I have ever dealt with, and I consider it a privilege to be allowed to study along side future priests.

my bishop is very selective about where he sends our seminarians - st. john vianney in minnesota, st. meinrad in indiana, blessed john XXIII in massachusetts (for late vocations), and mount saint mary's in emmitsburg. he pulled all the college seminarians out of the josephinum 2 years ago (a new rector or something?) and now they all go to SJV.
