Pope Francis welcoming a group from Saint Mary's Seminary in the Diocese of Cleveland, Ohio in the United States Pope Francis met with priests, deacons, seminarians and staff from Saint Mary’s Seminary in Cleveland, Ohio on Monday morning. The US group is celebrating the 175th anniversary of the seminary's founding.
The Pope in his prepared text then highlighted how this mission of formation takes on"ever greater importance" as the Church continues in its synodal journey by underscoring three key elements: listening to the Lord, walking together, and giving witness.Listening to the Lord is an essential characteristic, as"by ourselves we can do nothing," the Pope pointed out.
Seminary life already helps develop this habit of prayer that is key to ministry, the Pope observed, and listening to the Lord helps in responding to our faith so that we can effectively teach and proclaim"the truth and beauty of the Gospel in an authentic and joyful way.
Pastoral ministry includes showing the path forward, encouraging others and always accompanying the flock.Listening to God and walking together help us become"living signs of Jesus present in the world," the Pope recalled, and in this way we can give witness to our faith. The Pope expressed his hope that their seminary formation will help prepare them to be give of themselves completely"in celibate love and with an undivided heart, to God and his holy people.
