Catechetical Institute Registration Deadline Extended!
There's Still Time to Sign Up for the Catechetical Institute at St. Francis Xavier!
The Saint Paul Seminary's Catechetical Institute has extended the application deadline for its two-year Pillars Program to August 31, 2026.
The Pillars Program offers a comprehensive journey through the Catechism of the Catholic Church, presenting the faith as a story from blessing to blessing. The new class—named in honor of the soon-to-be Blessed Archbishop Fulton Sheen—begins in September 2026.
Classes meet Monday evenings from 7:00–9:00 p.m. at St. Francis Xavier, where participants gather in person for fellowship, small-group discussion, and livestreamed lectures.
Applications are being accepted through August 31, 2026.
