LA Archdiocese blesses, breaks ground on new seminary
The groundbreaking ceremony for the new facility for Queen of Angels Center for Priestly Formation took place on Palm Sunday. This moment gives us an excellent opportunity to reflect on the amount of work that has gone into this project. We are grateful for the help and support of the many people that have worked together to make this moment happen. The new facility will allow us to grow closer together as a community as we continue discerning the Lord’s will in our lives. May our Blessed Mother Mary, Queen of the Angels bless this project and lead us closer to her son so that we may serve the people of God in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. – Leonard Mendoza, Queen of Angels Center Seminarian
