It is our hope and prayer that we can come together to grow in our love for Christ and knowledge of His Church. Being in community is so very important in our Faith. However, in light of the Covid-19 virus, students may choose to take Module I of the 2020-2022 Pillars Pilot Program in person at St. Ann's or via the Internet. In early September, we will reach out to incoming students regarding their desire to take the course in person or online. The structure of the course, requirements, and tuition will remain the same for both in person and online.
Completed Registration packets must be sent to:
Archbishop Flynn Catechetical Institute
Registration Department
The Saint Paul Seminary

The cost for the Wadena Pillars Pilot Program $150 per module. There are four modules over the two-year period. The $150 tuition is paid prior to the beginning of each module.
