Meet the Seminarians
Founded in 1958, the members of the Serra Club of DuPage County encourage and affirm vocations to the priesthood and religious life through prayer and active fellowship. Though a member of the international vocation apostolate, Serra International, the club devotes most of its energies to fostering and promoting vocations in the Diocese of Joliet.
