Evening sermon-Religion in theory Sunday Benediction-Religion in practice The most important part of the seminarian's training is his spiritual development. Saint Fidelis tries to instill into its students the seeds of devotion that will remain with them all their lives, to encourage and help them in their future work as priests. Every day is begun with morning Mass, and is ended with night prayer in the evening. Visits in common are made through- out the day, and every boy is encouraged to foster his private devotions. Benediction is held twice a week, and three evenings of each weelc Father Giles, the spiritual director, gives a short sermon before night prayer. The priest must have many good qualifications: he should be learned, zealous, in good health, but most of all, he should be spiritual. That is why so much emphasis is put on the religious life of the student at Saint Fidelis. 17 The Way of the Cross
