Vision
The Spiritan Missionary Seminary was founded with the primary mission of forming men for the ministerial priesthood in the Roman Catholic Church. Through a balanced and integrated priestly formation program, the seminary prepares future pastors, educators, and leaders who are configured to Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd.
Beyond spiritual formation, SMS also focuses on human and intellectual formation, ensuring that students develop critical thinking, ethical values, and leadership skills necessary for ecclesial and societal service. The seminary is also open to lay faithful, equipping them for leadership roles within the Church.
