Bishop Emilio E. Biosca visits 17 seminarians in Florida

Bishop Emilio E. Biosca visited 17 seminarians at two Florida institutions from Sept. 25 to 27, 2026. The Bishop of the Diocese of Venice toured St. John Vianney College Seminary in Miami and St. Vincent de Paul Regional Seminary in Boynton Beach to meet privately with the men.

During these meetings, Bishop Biosca spoke with each man individually to learn their stories and offer support for their spiritual formation and discernment toward the priesthood. The visit to St. Vincent de Paul Regional Seminary coincided with Parent’s Weekend, allowing the bishop to meet the families of several seminarians.

On Sept. 27, Bishop Biosca presided over the institution of lectors and acolytes at St. Joan of Arc Parish in Boca Raton. He is scheduled to visit one seminarian at Mount St. Mary College in Maryland and three at Pope St. John XXIII National Seminary in Massachusetts in the coming weeks.
