St. Alcuin House

St. Alcuin House

St. Alcuin House Seminary was founded by the Order of St. Alcuin (Benedictine) as the official seminary of the Province of St. Alcuin, Convocation of Anglicans in North America, offers graduate education in ministry related areas such as theology, Christian literature, chaplaincy and philosophy. St. Alcuin House Seminary offers theological and philosophical study programs to prepare people for sacred ministry. The first goal of St. Alcuin House Seminary is "... to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ" (Eph 4, 11-12).

The St. Alcuin House Seminary has links with other communities, such as the English National Catholic Church and the Mexican National Catholic Church. There are two Saint Alcuin House seminaries (in Minnesota and Florida) inside the Saint Alcuin Theological Federation.

The Saint Alcuin Theological Federation enables students to prepare for ordained ministry in an ecumenical context, while remaining rooted in the tradition of their own particular college. It also makes possible the sharing of teaching, library, research and other resources for the love of learning.

Each institution is responsible for the training, development and pastoral care of its own students. However the majority of academic teaching is delivered on a Federation basis, making the teaching expertise of each institution available to all Saint Alcuin-based Federation students, and ensuring a mutual sharing and challenging of ideas.

Permission may be given to use the Bodleian Library, Oxford, Princeton Theological Seminary Library and Friends of Princeton Libraries, and to arrange attendance at lectures.

The Saint Alcuin House Seminary offers also other ministries and program for students and alumni: the Prayer and Healing Ministry (PHM), the Emmanuel Mission (EM) and the Order of Saint Alcuin (OSA).

Famous quotes containing the word house:

    You ask what I have found and far and wide I go,
    Nothing but Cromwell’s house and Cromwell’s murderous crew,
    The lovers and the dancers are beaten into the clay,
    And the tall men and the swordsmen and the horsemen where are they?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
