Christ at the Center of Our Life

At the heart of seminary formation is not an idea, an ideal, purpose, aspiration or plan, no matter how lofty or noble.

At the heart of formation is a person, and His name is Jesus.

He is at the center of everything a seminarian does, everything a seminarian is, everything a seminarian aspires to become.

At the heart of formation at St. John Vianney is something very simple: putting Jesus at the center of everything we do, everything that we are, everything we would like to be; all else is secondary.
