What is a Seminary?
For those of you that do not know, a seminary is a college or university that prepares people to become priests, rabbis, or ministers. St. Mary's Seminary is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Galveston–Houston and therefore facilitates the ordination and spiritual growth of Catholic Priests. Students are traditionally called seminarians.
A little history
St. Mary’s Seminary, dedicated to the honor of the Mother of Jesus, dates its origins from the charter establishing the University of St. Mary in the City of Galveston on August 23, 1856. The institution was transferred in 1901 to La Porte, and by charter amendments duly made and filed, the name was changed to St. Mary’s Seminary. With the completion of new buildings, the seminary was relocated at its present site in Houston on October 4, 1954.To get the full scope of the history, CLICK HERE What I can tell you is my personal experience. Between the ages of 10 and 13, I attended a summer camp here. To be quite honest, I had no idea what this place was at the time. I didn't figure it out until I was an adult. I just knew that there were fun things to do here like tennis, swimming pool, hiking trails, a basketball court and the list goes on.
before we get started
@xtrodinarypilot has never been a fan of going to church. It's likely to say that he never will be. For someone who despises churches so much, it's a wonder that I am so captivated by the architecture of all places of spiritual and religious gathering. I do a great job maneuvering through the religious facets of society, so expect to also see mosques, Buddhist & Hindu temples, Orthodox, Mormon Temples, and many more. I will also give you a tour of Greater Church of Lucifer in my hometown. @xtrodinarypilot does not discriminate, but do know that the exterior building has no aesthetic design.

Historia
El Seminario de Santa María, dedicado al honor de la Madre de Jesús CHristo, data de los orígenes de la carta constitutiva de la Universidad de Santa María en la Ciudad de Galveston el 23 de agosto de 1856. La institución fue trasladada en 1901 a La Porte, Por las enmiendas de la carta debidamente hechas y archivadas, el nombre fue cambiado al seminario del St. Maria. Con la finalización de nuevos edificios, el seminario fue reubicado en su actual sede en Houston el 4 de Octubre de 1954. Para obtener el alcance completo de la historia, HAGA CLIC AQUÍ Lo que puedo decirte es mi experiencia personal. Entre las edades de 10 y 13, asistí a un campamento de verano aquí. Para ser sincero, no tenía ni idea de lo que este lugar era en el momento. No lo descubrí hasta que era adulto. Sólo sabía que había cosas divertidas que hacer aquí como tenis, piscina, senderos, una cancha de baloncesto y la lista continúa.
Antes que empecemos
@xtrodinarypilot nunca ha sido un fan de ir a la iglesia. Es probable que diga que nunca lo será. Para alguien que desprecia las iglesias tanto, es una maravilla que estoy tan cautivado por la arquitectura de todos los lugares de reunión espiritual y religiosa. Hago un gran trabajo maniobrando a través de las facetas religiosas de la sociedad, así que esperan ver también mezquitas, templos budistas e hindúes, templos ortodoxos, mormones y muchos más. También te daré un tour de Greater Iglesia de Lucifer si mi ciudad natal. @xtrodinarypilot no discrimina, pero sí sabe que el edificio exterior no tiene diseño estético.

I managed to make it through this photo shoot without catching on fire. It did get hot but that was thanks to the Texas heat and humidity. Part 2 will consist of where the priests hang out when they aren't priesting. I just made that word up because it sounded appropriate. Remember priests and seminarians are humans too and do more than just spiritual and religous studies. I will take you behind the scenes where they play pool, darts, and videos games. Remember when you see the handle, DemonSlayer777 or SoulSaver123 it could very well be a priest on the kill-streak.
I also know what you're thinking. Was @xtrodinarypilot really there? Well of course he was!
