Our Diocese and the Knights of Columbus are excited to begin preparations for the 17th Annual Angelo Lucchesi Seminarian Dinner on Saturday evening, August 8, with doors opening at 5:30pm. All are invited to be part of this special evening.
Celebrate and Support
The annual event brings together supporters from across West Tennessee to celebrate Vocations and support our Seminarians preparing to serve our Diocese as future Priests. The support from all of us helps provide the education, spiritual formation, and pastoral training these men need as they answer God’s call.
Costs and Community
The formation of a Seminarian costs approximately $60,000 per year and, through the generosity of our Catholic community, we help to ensure these men can focus fully on preparing for Ministry.
Buy Tickets
Purchase tickets early for the Seminarian Dinner. It will be a special evening supporting our Seminarians preparing to serve our Diocese as future Priests. This event sells out quickly each year, and every ticket helps support the formation and education of our Seminarians.
