“Faithful Cross, above all other, One and only noble Tree!… Sweet the wood and sweet the iron, Sweet the weight that hangs on thee!” As every year, we gathered in solemn Vespers to venerate the precious relics of the Holy Cross. In an atmosphere of prayer and devotion, we approached the Cross and kissed it reverently, while the choir filled the chapel with the beautiful Latin hymn Crux Fidelis. A Cross was beautifully decorated with flowers , reminding us that from the Cros

«O croce fedele, albero glorioso, unico fra tutti per foglie, fiori e frutti. O dolce legno, che con dolci chiodi sostieni un così dolce peso.» Come ogni anno, ci siamo riuniti in solenni Vespri per venerare le preziose reliquie della Santa Croce. In un’atmosfera di preghiera e devozione, ci siamo avvicinati alla Croce e l’abbiamo baciata con riverenza, mentre il coro riempiva la cappella con il bellissimo inno latino “Crux Fidelis”. Una croce era splendidamente adornata di

On 12 September 2026, we had the joy and grace of being present at the priestly ordination of Xavier Mulupri, an alumnus of Collegio Sedes Sapientiae and a son of the Diocese of Srikakulam, India. The celebration took place at the Parrocchia San Massimo Vescovo in Orta di Atella, Caserta, where Xavier and four other deacons were ordained through the imposition of hands and the consecratory prayer of H.E. Mons. Salvatore Pennacchio, President of the Pontifical Ecclesiastical A

“The liturgy is the source from which the Church’s strength flows.” Where else, then, could we begin our new academic year if not at the Lord’s Eucharistic table, giving thanks for all the blessings we have received during the past year? On September 1, we inaugurated the new academic year with Holy Mass at the Prelatic Church of Santa María de la Paz at 10:30 a.m. Our rector, Fr. Sergio Tapia, presided over the celebration and delivered a homily that invited reflection.

On Saturday the 23rd, we joyfully celebrated the birthdays of the seminarians of our college who were born in the month of May. It was a special occasion marked by fraternity and sharing the table, in a simple atmosphere filled with gratitude for the gift of life and friendship. The celebration was enriched with games, songs, and moments of healthy recreation that strengthened the bonds among all present. Through smiles and gestures of closeness, we lived a fraternal day that

On the evening of 22nd May, we had a chance to welcome the President of the CARF Foundation -Dr. Luis Alberto Rosales- as part of our longstanding tradition. CARF is a Spanish foundation devoted to supporting the formation of seminarians, since a long time a very generous partner and benefactor in our mission. At the heart of the evening was the perpetuation of a beloved and long-standing tradition: the solemn presentation of a Mass kit to each of the seminarians who will be

On the afternoon of 21st May, following lunch, we had the privilege of welcoming a distinguished Sedes Guest: don Fernando López Arias, currently a professor at the Liturgical Institute of the Holy Cross -in the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross- and holder of a doctorate in Architecture. With ten modern churches as his guiding examples, don Fernando aided us to look at contemporary architectural works with fresh eyes and a more informed sensibility. In his presentation

Amid the intense rhythm of academic and formative life, there are moments when we must pause — to return to our centre: the interior life and our living relationship with the Lord. This is the very reason our monthly retreats exist. And so, on Saturday the 16th of May 2026, we gathered for our monthly retreat, led by Fr. Richard Stonier, a doctoral candidate in Canon Law and a former student of our college. During the meditations, Fr. Richard guided us to turn to the Lord and

In recent days, our College joyfully welcomed the visit of His Excellency Bishop Indrias Rehmat, Bishop of the Diocese of Faisalabad in Pakistan, and a few days later, His Excellency Mar Jose Kalluvelil, Bishop of the Syro-Malabar Eparchy of Mississauga in Canada. Both encounters were marked by fraternity, closeness, and a profound sense of ecclesial communion. During their meetings, the bishops shared a meaningful vocational message, encouraging everyone to live the faith wi

“Oh, what joy when they said to me: let us go to the house of the Lord,” says Psalm 122, and this is exactly what we experienced on Thursday, May 14, a feast day for our College. Besides celebrating the feast of the Apostle Saint Matthias as a Church, we also had the great joy of accompanying some of our brother seminarians from India as they received various ministries according to the Syro-Malabar Rite. From the second year of formation: Geoffry Tharakan Parayil, Joel Thoma
