A Message from Fr. Alex
Two years ago, the Diocese of Charlotte established St. Joseph College Seminary where, to date, we have 16 seminarians in formation, with 8 more set to begin studies in the fall of 2018. We plan to build a permanent home for the Seminary on 86 acres of land near Belmont Abbey, where the young men will obtain undergraduate degrees. So far $4.7million has been given, with approximately $15 million needed to complete the first phase of the 2 phase plan. Bishop Jugis is forming a team of volunteers who may have a heart for seeing this project to completion. If you are interested in participating in this project, please contact the office.
Thank you,
Father Alex -
