Tower stone workThe renovations of the Seminary's campus in Shrewsbury are under budget and ahead of schedule. Progress is evident as the shell of the eastern expansion has taken form and interior demolition has given way to new construction.  New metal stud partitions create the rooms and spaces which will serve the seminary community. 

The project has allowed the Seminary to fix previous problems such as leaky plumbing, outdated electrical systems, and insufficient heating and cooling systems. There have also been significant improvements to the exterior of the buildings and the campus grounds.  New underground utilities and site lighting have been installed, exterior masonry is being repaired, and the soccer field has been regraded and sodded after a new irrigation system was installed.

Words of the Archbishop

Archbishop Robert J. Carlson

Together with the priests of this archdiocese, we want to make sure that we shape, form and mold the very best seminarians in the United States. I don’t want a seminary that’s number two. I want a seminary that’s number one. And with the priests working with me, and all the different (deaneries) of the archdiocese, I know that we’ll be able to have that kind of seminary that trains people for what they’re going to find when they go out to serve the people of our parishes.

What better way to transform the world through a civilization of love than by taking an active role in fostering vocations and assisting in providing the financial resources required to preserve one of our archdiocese’s most important assets — Kenrick-Glennon Seminary.
