Seminary

Something inside me was telling me I was dreaming. But when I woke up this morning, it has actually all happened.

Yesterday, I was accepted for seminary formation by my bishop. I shall begin in September at an English diocesan seminary in the UK. I'm very excited about it, especially as for me, this process of application has been going on for about 3 years (though I formally applied in October last year).

This shall be the 6th time in my life when I have been a first year, and hopefully the last. I have visited several times already, but still I really don't know what to expect, so I'm sure it will be a very exciting journey for me.

I won't turn this into an Oscar acceptance speech, but I'd just like to say thanks. But don't forget me yet; I'm sure I'll need your support now more than ever as I begin to dip my toe in the waters of Mother Church (or, jumping in the deep end more like!).
