A world of fellowship on the path to the priesthood

Welcome to Holy Spirit Seminary!

We hope that this website offers you a real and positive glimpse of the life we live while preparing for ordination as Catholic priests.

Currently there are eleven students associated with the seminary. All of them are at different stages of training. Three new students began here in February, while another's ordination to the diaconate took place the same month.

We have young men from Australia, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Vietnam and Nigeria. With the current rector originally from the United Kingdom, you can imagine that this wealth of cultural experience adds a massive dimension to the life we live together.

This dynamic fellowship represents the Church and the wider culture of modern Australia.
