 Seminarians gather at Sandbridge
Men preparing for formation to the priesthood of the Diocese of Richmond recently gathered for several days at Sandbridge shortly before departing to their respective seminaries. During that time the seminarians prayed together, heard presentations by priests and others associated with the diocese, and spent time getting to know one another better. With them in the group shot are Father Michael Renninger, director of the Office of Vocations, and Father Gregory Kandt, pastor of Church of the Incarnation in Charlottesville.
 Latin Tridentine rite
Benedictine Father Adrian W. Harmening, pastor of St. Joseph’s Church in Richmond, stands on the grounds of the church which is located at 828 Buford Road in the Bon Air neighborhood. It is one of two church communities in the Diocese of Richmond at which Mass is celebrated in the Latin Tridentine rite.
