About Immaculate Conception Seminary
For more than 80 years, the Seminary of the Immaculate Conception provided theological education and priestly formation to candidates for the Dioceses of Brooklyn and Rockville Centre. In recent decades, the Seminary opened its educational programs to laity and religious, providing pastoral leaders in theology and for more than ten years, candidates for the permanent diaconate have received their formation at Immaculate Conception.
Recently, this house of formation in Christ has been transformed to continue to pursue its mission of theological education and formation, by welcoming retreatants and, academic and pastoral conferences.
It is a place of great beauty where people are invited to come away and spend time with the Lord. It is a house of hospitality where every guest is welcomed as Christ. It is a school where scripture and theology are read and studied. And, above all it is a place that strives to form all in Christ after the example of His best and first disciple, Mary, the Immaculate Conception. She listened for the voice of the Shepherd and pondered His word in her heart.
