Why Invest in the SOT/Sem

Saint John’s School of Theology and Seminary forms leaders for a Church and world in need of healing, wisdom, and hope. As one of the few Catholic and Benedictine schools in the U.S. where women and men—lay and ordained—are formed together in close connection with a monastic community, it offers a distinctive model of theological education and formation.

Rooted in prayer, study, and community, the school is dedicated to being a School for the Lord’s service—preparing leaders to serve faithfully wherever they are called.
