Set within the expanse of suburban Miami, St. John Vianney College Seminary has boasted an excellence in priestly formation since 1959. The seven dioceses of Florida all send seminarians studying for the Roman Catholic priesthood to this fully accredited four-year liberal arts college institution with a concentration in philosophical studies. Given its culturally rich surroundings, St. John Vianney offers many courses in both English and Spanish while alternating daily prayer in these two languages. Pastoral responsibilities both within the seminary community and the local community at large instill a love for serving the people of God whom these seminarians will one day serve as Catholic priests.
