Renovations at St. John Vianney College Seminary in St. Paul are progressing, with scaffolding around a 20,000-square-foot addition that includes a new chapel.
The seminary will have new meeting rooms and residences for priests who live and work there. Updated residence halls, floor lounges, kitchen and dining areas and restrooms have already been completed.
St. John Vianney is one of the largest college seminaries in the United States, drawing men discerning the priesthood from dioceses across the nation. About 100 undergraduate men are in formation each year. The $10 million construction effort — projected for completion in May 2023— is being funded by the seminary’s benefactors and sponsoring dioceses.
