THE MARY HELP OF CHRISTIANS COLLEGE SEMINARY

The Mary Help of Christians College Seminary is the Collegiate Seminary of the Archdiocese of Lingayen-Dagupan. It hopes to bring to the Priesthood those who have been called, and to bring them an adequate training, namely, with a conscious and free response of adherence and involvement of their whole person with Jesus Christ who calls them to intimacy of life with him and to share in His mission of salvation. (Pastores Dabo Vobis, n. 42)

Its aim is the more explicit and fuller development of a vocation to the priesthood, as it prepares young men for higher theological studies and eventually, for priestly service in the Archdiocese.

It offers a program of studies leading to the degree of Bachelor in Arts with concentration in Philosophy.

Through its varied curricular and co-curricular activities it hopes to produce graduates who would be:

· Responsible and free, creatively effective and committed Catholic Filipinos.

· Educated to love the truth, to be loyal, to respect every person.

· Just and true to their word, genuinely compassionate, men of integrity and balanced in judgment and behavior.

· Men of communion: affable, hospitable, sincere, prudent and discreet, generous and ready to serve, capable of opening himself to clear and brotherly relationship and of encouraging the same in others, quick to understand, to forgive and to console.

· Professionally competent and able to contribute fruitfully to the building of a more human world and equipped with the following skills; the ability to observe, analyze, interpret communicate intelligently and clearly, organize and effectively lead.

· Men who have learned to live in intimate and unceasing union with God; who live His Paschal Mystery in such a way that they will know how to initiate into it the people committed to their charge; who seek Christian in His Word and the Sacred Mysteries of the Church.

The Mary Help of Christians College Seminary, though seen as a place and a period in life, is above all an educational ecclesial community in progress. It is a community established by the Bishop to offer to those called by the Lord to serve as Apostles the possibility of re-living the experience of formation, which our Lord provided for the Twelve Apostles.

Christian community life is an integral content of the Mary Help of Christians College Seminary program of formation and is to found and pervade all its aspects. The integration of human experiences with Christian Life in a climate of mutual trust, fraternal concern and communion lived in an atmosphere of prayer is the fundamental thrust of MHCCS’s Formation.

The specific goal determines its features; the vocational accompanying of future priests, and therefore discernment of a vocation, the help to respond to it, and the preparation to receive the Sacred Order as imparted in the Theologate. It is then committed to a holistic formation: the human, spiritual, intellectual and pastoral formation of future priests.
