The Diocese of Olympia offers school that is part of the Seminary of the Southwest’s Iona Collaborative for postulants seeking ordination in the diaconate, for some seeking local ordination as priests and deacons, and for lay persons who feel called to such training.
Students meet one weekend a month, 10 times/year, usually at Saint Andrew’s House, the Diocesan Retreat Center on Hood Canal. We learn together, worship together, pray together, eat together, and enjoy being in community.
