"I remind you to rekindle the gift of faith that is within you." (2 Tim 1:6) More than 2,300 priests have attended the Institute for Continuing Theological Education of the Pontifical North American College since its inauguration in 1971. The Institute offers two twelve-week theological renewal programs for priests each year; Fall and Spring Semesters. The Institute was founded in 1971 in response to the call of the Second Vatican Council for the renewal of priests. Fourteen of the sixteen documents of the council can be quoted indicating that continuing education and renewal are important for priests and their ministry. In addition, our program follows suggestions for the ongoing education and renewal of priests especially found in Pastores Dabo Vobis (I Will Give You Shepherds) and in The Directory on the Ministry and Life of Priests developed by the Congregation for the Clergy. The Bishops of the United States of America have contributed to this development through the Program of Priestly Formation and the Basic Plan for the Ongoing Formation of Priests. The Institute seeks to assist bishops and religious superiors to provide for the ongoing education and renewal of their priests here in Rome. Over the years our sabbatical program has helped many priests in the renewal of their vocation and priesthood, revitalizing them and equipping them for more effective pastoral ministry.
