Diaconal (Deacon) Formation
The academic formation of diaconal candidates will be provided in collaboration with Sacred Heart School of Theology, or other colleges/universities in the archdiocese, or may continue as a stand-alone program. Men in the deacon formation program will receive their spiritual, pastoral and human formation from Saint Francis Seminary.

Students in the diaconal program study to be ordained so that they may proclaim the Word of God, witness marriages, preach at liturgies, and minister to Catholics throughout the archdiocese, usually in affiliation with a parish.
