When/Where
We Meet
The School meets one weekend per month for two years from September through June at All Saints Conference Center, 833 Hickory Grove Road in Leitchfield, Kentucky.
Sessions begin at 5:30 p.m. (CT) on Friday night and conclude at 4:00 p.m. on Saturday. It is the expectation that all students will remain on site for the duration of each weekend, and will attend every weekend of the program.
In between weekend sessions, students will have reading assignments, ministry projects, and papers to write. Access to email and the Internet is very important.
Tuition for the program is $850 per year (or $425 per semester) and covers housing, meals and all other materials, except textbooks.
SOM is supported financially by the Diocese of Kentucky, contributions and tuition. Donations for support of the program may be sent to the diocese.
