SFS Seminary, Ettumanoor was established in 1967 as a house of formation for the Missionaries of St. Francis de Sales (MSFS).
Guided by the gospel values and the pastoral vision of our bishops, we form future priests and religious who are deeply rooted in prayer, committed to learning and dedicated to serving God’s people.
Our formation journey integrates academic excellence, human growth, spiritual depth and pastoral sensitivity. We strive to shape men who are holy, competent, compassionate and missionary in heart.
