Admission Requirements

The Lord is blessing the Apostles of Jesus with many wonderful vocations; hence the Order is growing both in quality and in number. A vocation or call to either a Priestly or Religious life is a grace.  It is, therefore, a gift and an opportunity that must be responded to freely and seriously in order to be an effective instrument of the Lord.

The Apostles of Jesus (A.J.) is looking for candidates who are responding to God’s call in their lives with a deep desire to live the Gospel and grow in their relationship with Jesus.

A Seminarian is he who, again by the grace of God, has given his initial “Yes” to God’s call with all its implications.  It is a call “to serve and not to be served and to give his life for a ransom for all” (Matt. 20:28).

A Seminarian aspires to a life of service to Christ in the hungry, the thirsty, the sick and imprisoned, physically and spiritually. It is a long journey to Priesthood and Brotherhood. Our Seminarians are well-educated, supported spiritually by many people, and prepared to live parsimoniously.

If you feel God’s presence in your heart, calling you to a Missionary life, please contact the Apostles of Jesus. For information on how to become a Seminarian, contact the Apostles of Jesus’ General Vocations Director in Nairobi
