To make the seminary a school of the gospel in order to have a holistic formation of priests for effective service in the church.
To form holy, convinced, committed, well-equipped and pastoral-oriented catholic priests.
The mandate of seminary formation springs from the general evangelizing mission of the Church given by Christ: “Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.”
