CATHOLIC SCHOOLS

We are blessed to offer outstanding Catholic school ministry throughout central and southern Indiana. Catholic school ministry unites faith and academic excellence through Gospel values, prayer, sacraments, and high expectations.

Since 1834, Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Indianapolis have educated and formed hundreds of thousands of young people preparing them for eternal and earthly life.

Your support ensures the formation of young people through holistic, engaging, and academically rigorous programming that integrates faith, culture, and life as modeled by Jesus Christ. Your contributions safeguard the Catholic identity/mission, leadership and governance, academic excellence and operational vitality of our schools in ways that will allow students to experience Catholic education and formation for years to come.

Priesthood is not just a career choice. It’s a way of life and service. It’s a vocation. Priestly formation takes in the whole person through these four dimensions: spiritual, intellectual, pastoral and human. Our program seeks to inspire seminarians to grow in holiness of life; live in conformity with the Gospel message of Jesus Christ; honor Mary by following her example of obedience, virtue and love; develop an understanding of the teachings of the Church; foster respect for human dignity; and hone the human skills necessary for pastoral ministry.

Your support of our Legacy Gala helps equip us with the tools we need to properly form these young men who may one day become part of the body of priests in our archdiocese. It’s an investment in the strength and vitality of our future Church.
