Discovering freedom, clarity, and God’s voice through silence and formation.
“My name is Jacob O’Meara and I am a seminarian studying for the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis at the St. Paul Seminary. I am in my fifth year of major seminary, two years away from priestly ordination, God willing.
In my first year of major seminary, I participated in a year-long media and technology fast as a part of my formation which helped me realize just how dependent I had become. This fast largely opened internal space and freedom to hear God’s voice more clearly and begin to recognize more deeply the desires of my own heart.
Funds from the Catholic Services Appeal assist with part of the costs of my room and board for me and other major seminarians from this archdiocese. I am grateful to all who help make this happen. Thank you, and may God bless you!”
