Opening eyes - students take this formational walk at a place that integrates academic studies with the Catholic Benedictine daily rhythms of prayer and work. Scripture, spirituality, and liturgy have an integral role in shaping each person. Like the lakes and woods around Saint John's are ever-changing through God's beautiful creation, we hear God's calling to create a more nurturing and welcoming building in Emmaus Hall.

As one of the most respected graduate programs in North America, the Graduate School of Theology and Seminary at Saint John's is committed to the sacredness of each person. It prepares students professionally and intellectually for the important work they will do in the world, but it also emphasizes who each is called to be - a disciple, an ordained or lay minister, a teacher, or a scholar. At this graduate school, teachers and students seek truth and wisdom with hope and mindful compassion. 

... as we create a renewed space for worship, for learning, for living, and for building the Christian community.

 

DaleI am proud of what Saint John's has been since its founding and what it continues to be today. I am also excited about what it can be in the future, and how the work we have done so far can be - must be - enriched as we continue to serve the church. We have targeted Emmaus Hall as a needed area of growth. Please click on the link below and find out if God is calling you to support the Emmaus Hall Renovation.

Together we can bring renewal, strengthening the Church and enriching the lives of those familiar with and new to its community.
