St. Vladimir's at St. Herman!

For the past six days, the students and staff at St. Herman have hosted three visitors from St. Vladimir's Seminary: Fr. Chad Hatfield, Chancellor of St Vladimir's, and two student deacons, Ignatius and Lucas.  On Thursday morning, Fr. Dn. Ignatius gave a presentation on pastoral care and counseling; in the afternoon, Fr Chad spoke on missiology.  On Friday, Fr. Dn. Lucas spoke on homiletics, and in the afternoon, each student gave a brief homily to show what he had learned.  St. Herman was very blessed by their presence, and is eager to continue the blossoming relationship between the sister seminaries.
