"It is not possible to walk this path alone. With Christ leading the way, our seminarians need you, the Church, to accompany them on their journey to priesthood." — Father Jeff Hebert, vocations director
Taste of Faith is a fundraising dinner to help pay for seminarian education in the Diocese of Little Rock. Dinners are being held in Jonesboro and Little Rock. In addition to the meal, attendees are treated to music, entertainment and testimonials from the seminarians and talks from the diocesan vocations director and bishop.
This event begins at 6 p.m. Register to attend online. "We promise a fun and entertaining program that will help you get to know our seminarians who will be the future pastors in our parishes," wrote Father Jeff Hebert, vocations director, in a letter sent out to parishioners across Arkansas.
However, "if you prefer, you can simply invest in our future Church now," by donating online in support of seminarian education. In addition, the Taste of Faith program will be recorded and the video will be uploaded to the website at a later time for all to enjoy.
It is estimated to cost the diocese $41,000 a year to educate and provide for the living expenses of one seminarian. This includes tuition, room and board, health insurance and other needs. With the increases in cost and seminarians, we need your help to form our future priests. Taste of Faith is hosted by the Stewardship and Development Office and Vocations and Seminarians Office. For more information, contact Kelly Wewers, director of stewardship and development, at (501) 664-0340.
