High
School
At the beginning of this third millennium, you
too, young
people, are called
to proclaim the message of the Gospel with the
testimony of your lives. The Church
needs your energies,
your enthusiasm,
your youthful ideals
to ensure that the Gospel permeates the fabric
of society and inspires a civilization of authentic
justice and love without discrimination.

Quigley Scholars
Program:
The Quigley Scholars Program was
designed and instituted by Francis Cardinal
George in 2007 to provide support for Catholic
young men in the Archdiocese of Chicago who
have interest in the diocesan priesthood. Candidates
for the scholarship must be baptized, practicing
Roman Catholics, show an interest in the diocesan
priesthood, be recommended by their home parish
pastor, and maintain a 3.0 GPA. Scholars attend
once-per-month formational meetings at St. Joseph
College Seminary, and devote themselves to attendance
at mass, prayer, parish service, and other activities
vital to their discernment. Scholars also receive
a scholarship to help offset tuition at a four-year
Catholic high school in the Archdiocese of Chicago.
