PHOTOS: Seminarians relax and grow on South Dakota retreat
July 31, 2025
Archdiocese of Omaha seminarians went on retreat this week with Archbishop Michael G. McGovern and Fathers Scott Schilmoeller and Zachary Tucker of the Vocations Office.
They’ve spent the week worshiping, reading, reflecting and playing as they’ve traveled by bus through South Dakota. The retreat has given the seminarians a chance to unwind and grow together after their various summer assignments and before returning to school-year formation.
Several seminarians graciously captured photos from the still-ongoing retreat. Please pray for all our seminarians – and see for yourself just a portion of what they’ve been up to:
