This latest version of the Program of Priestly Formation comes from reflecting on the lived experience of the Church in the United States in these opening decades of the twenty-first century and takes its inspiration from the Ratio Fundamentalis Institutionis Sacerdotalis, which states, "the fundamental idea is that seminaries should form missionary disciples who are in love with the master, shepherds with the smell of the sheep, who live in their midst to bring the mercy of God to them.”
