IPSF-A and IPSF-B have just begun

On July 5th 2020, St. John's began the two summer programs of formation IPSF A & B.

IPSF-A is offered before the first year of studies. New seminarians attend a four-week introductory program of formation in St. John’s. This program focuses chiefly on the human and spiritual foundations necessary for a healthy life in the Spirit. This experience includes a five-day silent directed retreat.

IPSF-B is for seminarians that have finished their parish internship experience. This period includes a week-long debriefing of the parish internship, an examination of various aspects of a healthy and integrated diocesan priestly spirituality, and a five-day silent directed retreat.

Both of these programs are held on the campus of St. John’s Seminary and are marked by significant amounts of time for reflective spiritual reading and solitude with the Lord.
