Welcome to the School of Theology

Welcome to Saint Meinrad School of Theology’s Web pages. If this is your first introduction to Saint Meinrad, I hope you’ll find the information you need to attend one of our programs or apply as a prospective student.

Saint Meinrad School of Theology is part of the 1,500-year Benedictine tradition of prayer, work and community. The Benedictine values of the love of learning and the desire for God are evident in the School motto: Sanctitate et Scientia – “Through Holiness and Learning.”

For 150 years, we have served the Catholic Church by preparing men for priesthood, men for service as permanent deacons, and men and women for lay ministry. We also offer programs in other areas, such as the Institute for Priests and Presbyterates, the “One Bread, One Cup” summer youth conferences and the College Ministerial Internship Program.

It is my sincere hope that Saint Meinrad can offer you something that will deepen your spiritual life and enhance your theological knowledge. Our staff, faculty and monastic community are committed to providing excellent formation and education that will allow you to grow in faith and knowledge and to serve others in your diocese, parish, school or community.

Yours in Christ,

Very Reverend Denis Robinson, OSB
President-Rector
