Adopt a Seminarian
The Adopt a Seminarian program is a great way to support vocations in our diocese and encourage those who are actively discerning or studying for the priesthood.
Adopt-a-Seminarian Program
What: Parishioners “adopt” a Phoenix Diocese seminarian
When: September - May of the current school year
Why: To support our seminarians with prayers, cards, care packages, and/or letters
Contact: Email smmadoptaseminarian@gmail.com or call/text Luzinda Chavez at 480-250-2813, or Julie Hahn at 480-216-9918 or julie@bradleylhahn.com.
Program Expectations:
- Stay current with Safe Environment.
- Pray regularly for your seminarian.
- Write 1-2 times during the school year. Short notes, letters, or holiday cards.
- Offer unconditional support without expecting a response. (They may only reply once a year due to their heavy workload.)
- If you send gifts, keep it under $25. Recommended gift cards include Walmart, Amazon, Visa/MC, and fast food (they enjoy Chick-Fil-A, Chipotle, and In-N-Out Burger).
- Their breaks are short and spent with family and diocesan activities. Please do not ask them to visit during this time.
Holy Hour for Priests
Please join us on the First Sunday of every month at 3:00pm in the chapel.
