Foster a Seminarian
Colombia, Latin America
Help A Seminarian Care For Family/Charity
Our seminarians come from backgrounds that include economic distress, food scarcity, and lack of access to basic needs. Most of their families still live in such conditions. Our seminarians desire to be generous to others, but since they don’t earn an income for the hard work they do, they are unable to give monetary donations to charity. Providing funds for this will allow our future priests and Brothers to make charitable donations and walk in solidarity with causes they care deeply about.

Help A Seminarian Travel
The life of a seminarian is focused on service and dying to self. It is important, however, that our priests and Brothers take occasional time to see their families and have time for respite. Supporting the travel/vacation fund allows future priests and Brothers to maintain family relationships that are critical to their success in the priesthood and religious life. There is no “paid time off” for priests or Brothers. Will you make it possible for them to enjoy a humble vacation occasionally?

Sponsor A Retreat/ Workshop
Eight seminarians living in Colombia are being shaped into holy and upright leaders. During the education and discernment process, they need to attend retreats and workshops to foster their faith and prepare them to teach sound doctrine. A priest’s vocation demands knowledge and skills in many areas, will you help prepare the future of the priesthood? Retreats vary from individual spirituality to pastoral care, and workshops include topics such as parish administration and liturgical customs.

Provide Books For Future Priests and Brothers
Think of the deep impact reading has had on your faith. Give the gift of learning to our seminarians by covering the costs of books and learning materials (including some digital media materials.)

Cover Passport/Visa Fees
Many of our future priests and Brothers come from Mexico, El Salvador, Colombia, Honduras, Costa Rica and Haiti. They need assistance coving fees for their visas. These young men are willing to leave behind their homes and loved ones to serve the Lord. Covering these costs ensures that borders don’t stop our seminarians from spreading the love of Jesus.

Provide Basic Transportation For Seminarians
Our seminarians spend a lot of time doing outreach and, since many people do not have regular transportation in Medellin and outlying areas, our future priests and Brothers need to go to them in order to serve. Providing basic transportation will help these young men spread the hope of the Gospel.

Provide Clothing For Seminarians
Eight seminarians need basic clothing in order to serve the communities near Medellin, Colombia. Although the temperature is usually predictable, Medellin experiences two rainy seasons and downpours can be very intense. Our seminarians need clothing/rain gear that is useful for walking in the rain, both in urban settings in the heart of the city, and in steep, mountainous terrain.

Rev. Michael Barth, ST, President

Father Mike Barth, S.T., was born in Berwick, PA but grew up mostly in Buffalo, New York. His journey to priesthood began when he was just a boy. “As long as I can remember,” he reflects, “I wanted to serve God and be a missionary. I can remember being in elementary school and hearing a talk about vocations. That talk inspired me to write several missionary congregations who advertised in The Catholic Messenger. Much to my parents’ surprise, all sent priests to my home to speak with me. It was one of our Missionary Servants, Father John McSpiritt, who really caught my attention. Thanks to his inspired words, I entered our seminary in 1966 and was ordained a Missionary Servant priest in 1979. In between those years, I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and a Master’s degree in Theology.”

In May 2019, Fr. Mike was elected for a second four-year term as the General Custodian (Superior General) of the Missionary Servants of the Most Holy Trinity. This leadership role is to ensure that the Congregation stays true to the vision and spirit of Father Judge. In 2014, he was appointed director of the Shrine of St. Joseph in Stirling, New Jersey. Previously, he pastored missions in Cleveland, Ohio, and Camden, Mississippi. Besides serving on many nonprofit boards, Fr. Mike served as Vicar General of the Missionary Servants of the Most Holy Trinity from 2003-2011.

Rev. Michael Barth, Presidente

El Padre Mike Barth, S.T., nació en Berwick, Pensilvania, pero creció principalmente en Buffalo, Nueva York. Su camino al sacerdocio comenzó cuando era solo un niño. “Siempre que puedo recordar”, reflexiona, “quería servir a Dios y ser un misionero. Recuerdo haber estado en la escuela primaria y escuchar una charla sobre vocaciones. Esa charla me inspiró a escribir varias congregaciones misioneras que se anunciaban en The Catholic Messenger. Para sorpresa de mis padres, todos enviaron sacerdotes a mi casa para hablar conmigo. Fue uno de nuestros Siervos Misioneros, el Padre John McSpiritt, quien realmente me llamó la atención. Gracias a sus palabras inspiradoras, ingresé a nuestro seminario en 1966 y fui ordenado sacerdote misionero en 1979. Entre esos años, obtuve una licenciatura en Trabajo Social y una Maestría en Teología “.

En mayo de 2019, el P. Mike fue elegido para un segundo mandato de cuatro años como Custodio General (Superior General) de los Siervos Misioneros de la Santísima Trinidad. Este rol de liderazgo consiste en asegurar que la Congregación se mantenga fiel a la visión y el espíritu del Padre Judge. En 2014, fue nombrado director del Santuario de San José en Stirling, Nueva Jersey. Anteriormente, pastoreaba misiones en Cleveland, Ohio, y Camden, Mississippi. Además de servir en muchas organizaciones sin fines de lucro, el P. Mike se desempeñó como Vicario General de los Siervos Misioneros de la Santísima Trinidad desde 2003-2011.
