Saint John Vianney College Seminary celebrated 50 years of vocational discernment and formation with an evening themed Honor the Past, Celebrate the Present, Hope for the Future.
The evening was especially notable in that it gathered all of the living current/former rectors together, two of whom are now bishops: Most Reverend Richard E. Pates, Bishop of Des Moines, Iowa (1981-1987); and Most Reverend Peter Christensen, Bishop of Boise, Idaho (1992-1999).
