We are happy to announce that we have accepted four new seminarians for the Diocese of St. Petersburg. These four men entered St. John Vianney College Seminary in Miami earlier this month as Pre-Theologians.

The seminarians pictured (left to right) are Donald Amodeo (Holy Family Parish); Zachary Brasseur (St. Paul Parish, St. Petersburg); Peter Gonzalez (St. Paul Parish, Tampa) and Gustavo Matos (St. Ignatius of Antioch Parish).  Each of these men already have college degrees from other universities, so they will be at St. John Vianney for two years to study philosophy before they graduate and go on to their theology studies at St. Vincent de Paul Regionals Seminary in Boynton Beach.

Please keep these fine young men in your prayers, as well as all of our seminarians, as they go back to the seminaries this month.
