On behalf of the entire Seminary community, thank you for your presence at our Inaugural Year-End Dinner.

These young men were overjoyed to welcome you for an evening of great fun and fellowship to show their appreciation.

We are pleased to share photos from the event and welcome you to download and share them with friends and family.



Feedback from our Guests

I wish to congratulate those who organized the special fundraising dinner at St. Augustine’s Seminary. The evening was highlighted by the guided tours of the chapel and the presence of seminarians, faculty, and of course, Cardinal Collins. It was a wonderful evening balanced by lively entertainment, inspiring talks and a wonderful meal. In particular, for those who had never seen the Seminary, it was a special night for them and only added to their enthusiasm to continue to support through their prayers and financial contributions. I would recommend it be held even on a quarterly basis. I am sure more would benefit from it.

It was a wonderful and fun-filled evening in support of St. Augustine Seminary and the Seminarians. Indeed a pleasure to support the great works that they do!

The event was well attended with many familiar people. The ambiance, food, decor, speeches, and entertainment were so well done. However, particularly important was to see our seminarians so engaged, actively greeting the guests, serving and entertaining the guests, all with much genuine enthusiasm. It was a special night for Sheila and me and we are already looking forward to a repeat performance next year!!! Thanks for all the hard work and behind-the-scenes efforts that made the evening possible. Please convey our best wishes to the Seminarians and please assure them that they will continue to be in our prayers.

The year-end event at the Seminary was thoroughly wonderful. It was good to see so many supporters and so many eager seminarians who are studying for the priesthood. We are in good hands.

Thank you for a delightful evening this past Saturday. The food was scrumptious, the wine just perfect and the camaraderie around our table was wonderful, especially as some of us had not seen each other over the pandemic. You all did a tremendous job in pulling off an enjoyable evening with every detail taken care of! Kudos to all of you, but an extra special shout out to the chefs and seminarians for their attentive service.
