SSS and Post SSS Graduates
|
The
training of local clergy continues to be the focus and priority
of St. Hubert Seminary. Consequently, St. Hubert graduates are
always encouraged to continue to pursue the noble vocation of
the Catholic Priesthood. However, not everybody continues to
the major seminary. At each terminal point, many seminarians
change their minds. Usually, about forty 40% continue on to
the one year Post SSS course after the Senior Secondary School
certificate Examinations. And out of the 40%, a few seminarians
drop out between the beginning of the Post SSS course and after
the first year in the major seminary, leaving about 25 to 30%
who are ordained as priests.

Ordinations

The
year 2004 was a special blessing for the graduates of St. Hubert
Seminary to the Archdiocese of Kumasi, Obuasi and Konongo-Mampong.
Kumasi had 10 deacons ordained priests and all of them began
at St. Hubert Seminary. Konongo-Mampong had nine, eight of whom
began at St. Hubert. Obuasi had six, and all of them passed
through St. Hubert Seminary. The total number of ordained priests
who have passed through St. Hubert since its inception in 1970
is close to 180. It includes three Bishops, namely Most Rev.
Peter Atuahene, Bishop of Goaso; Most Rev. Matthew Gyamfi, Bishop
of Sunyani and Most Rev. Gabriel Justice Anokye, Auxiliary Bishop
of Kumasi.
