(Hebrews 13:2)

Thank you for considering the campus of St. Joseph's Seminary in Yonkers as the location for your event.  We wish to serve you and your group during your time with us.  All requests will be considered in light of the mission of the seminary (cf. Mission Statement).

We ask you to review the policies and to complete the form for
use of the Yonkers Campus of
St. Joseph's Seminary.  Please note that your request is tentative until it is approved by the Rector.  At that time you will receive written confirmation and a quote from the Events Coordinator.

All events are reviewed and considered in light of the primary mission of the seminary, i.e. the formation of candidates for the priesthood. The seminary also serves the Church through its graduate theological and philosophical degree programs.

Thank you,
