Em 1943, o ent\u00e3o Governo Provincial decidiu partir para uma nova constru\u00e7\u00e3o em um local central da Prov\u00edncia, com clima favor\u00e1vel, boa disponibilidade de \u00e1gua e perspectivas para um sustento aut\u00f4nomo e sadio para os jovens seminaristas.<\/p>\n
Em 1945, partiram os frades a procura do local adequado para a nova constru\u00e7\u00e3o. Chegaram a Agudos, onde j\u00e1 se encontravam as Irm\u00e3s Franciscanas de Siessen que muito se empenharam pela ida dos frades \u00e0 cidade. O ent\u00e3o prefeito da cidade, Pe. Aquino se entusiasmou pela ideia e, pr\u00f3ximo \u00e0 propriet\u00e1ria da Fazenda Santo Ant\u00f4nio, levou os frades at\u00e9 l\u00e1 onde encontraram um local cultivado, com possibilidade de cria\u00e7\u00e3o de gado planta\u00e7\u00e3o de pomares, com \u00e1gua e luz e muita \u00e1rea plana para a constru\u00e7\u00e3o. O neg\u00f3cio foi fechado e come\u00e7a ent\u00e3o a constru\u00e7\u00e3o do Semin\u00e1rio Santo Ant\u00f4nio de Agudos.<\/p>\n
Os primeiros 70 seminaristas e 4 padres chegaram em 31 de Janeiro de 1950. As obras continuaram ininterruptas at\u00e9 1955. Em dezembro de 1952, dois ter\u00e7os da casa j\u00e1 estavam de p\u00e9, em 1953 j\u00e1 eram 210 os seminaristas em Agudos.<\/p>\n
O Fato mais significativo de 1955 foi a ben\u00e7\u00e3o da Igreja em 11 de Setembro. Todo o m\u00e1rmore usado na sua ornamenta\u00e7\u00e3o veio da It\u00e1lia chegando apenas um m\u00eas antes da data marcada para a Inaugura\u00e7\u00e3o. A Igreja foi dedicada \u00e0 Imaculada Concei\u00e7\u00e3o, padroeira da Ordem Franciscana e patrona da Prov\u00edncia.<\/p>\n
O \u00d3rg\u00e3o de Tubos foi constru\u00eddo pelo Sr. Siegfried Sch\u00fcrle e seu auxiliar August Pfau, ambos de S\u00e3o bento do Sul, Santa Catarina. Os estudos para a constru\u00e7\u00e3o remontam a maio de 1959, a constru\u00e7\u00e3o teve in\u00edcio no ano de 1961 e em 28 de Junho de 1962 o \u00f3rg\u00e3o foi inaugurado. \u00c9 o maior do interior do estado de S\u00e3o Paulo, com 25 registros reais e 2.062 tubos.<\/p>\n
O ano de 1959 marca o in\u00edcio da constru\u00e7\u00e3o da piscina. Ap\u00f3s o servi\u00e7o de concretagem, em maio de 1960 ela foi enchida pela primeira vez para testar vazamentos, um milh\u00e3o e quinhentos mil litros de \u00e1gua entraram nela. Em dezembro de 1960, dez anos depois da chegada dos primeiros seminaristas a turma p\u00f4de cair na piscina, que conta at\u00e9 hoje com esta\u00e7\u00e3o de tratamento e reciclagem da \u00e1gua.<\/p>\n
Ao longo desses 66 anos de exist\u00eancia, o Semin\u00e1rio Santo Ant\u00f4nio sempre teve suas alas cheias de seminaristas, hoje irm\u00e3os, padres e bispos a servi\u00e7o da Igreja.<\/p>\n
O carinho e o cuidado com esta casa nunca deixou de ser prioridade para todo frade, ex-aluno ou n\u00e3o. O local \u00e9 tamb\u00e9m motivo de orgulho para a cidade de Agudos.<\/p>\n
Miss\u00e3o: Ser uma Fraternidade de Acolhimento a frades, religiosos, padres e leigos na realiza\u00e7\u00e3o de encontros, retiros e eventos diversos, atrav\u00e9s do modo franciscano de ser. Estar a servi\u00e7o da Igreja local nas Par\u00f3quias e Semin\u00e1rio e pela a\u00e7\u00e3o evangelizadora, ser testemunho da ora\u00e7\u00e3o, do servi\u00e7o e da alegria proporcionando a todos o crescimento espiritual.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”188608″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_zigzag][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInLeft”]The St Antony Seminary arose from the need of the Franciscan Province of the Immaculate Conception of Brazil to have a suitable place to receive and train its seminarians, since the then Seminary of Rio Negro (PR) was revealed to be small in view of the prospects for vocations in Brazil. In 1943, the then Provincial Government decided to build a new building in a central location in the Province, with a favorable climate, good availability of water and prospects for an autonomous and healthy livelihood for young seminarians.<\/p>\n
In 1945, the friars left in search of a suitable place for the new building. They arrived at Agudos, where the Franciscan Sisters of Siessen were already present, who worked hard to get the friars to the city. The then mayor of the city, Fr. Aquino was enthusiastic about the idea and, close to the owner of Fazenda Santo Ant\u00f4nio, took the friars there where they found a cultivated place, with the possibility of raising cattle, planting orchards, with water and light and a lot of flat land for construction. The deal was closed and construction began on the Santo Ant\u00f4nio de Agudos Seminary.<\/p>\n
The first 70 seminarians and 4 priests arrived on January 31, 1950. The works continued uninterrupted until 1955. In December 1952, two thirds of the house were already up, in 1953 there were already 210 seminarians in Agudos.<\/p>\n
The most significant event of 1955 was the Church’s blessing on 9\/11. All the marble used in its ornamentation came from Italy, arriving just a month before the date set for the Inauguration. The Church was dedicated to the Immaculate Conception, patroness of the Franciscan Order and patroness of the Province.<\/p>\n
The Pipe Organ was built by Mr. Siegfried Sch\u00fcrle and his assistant August Pfau, both from S\u00e3o Bento do Sul, Santa Catarina. Construction studies date back to May 1959, construction began in 1961 and on June 28, 1962 the organ was inaugurated. It is the largest in the interior of the state of S\u00e3o Paulo, with 25 real records and 2,062 tubes.<\/p>\n
The year 1959 marks the beginning of the construction of the swimming pool. After the concreting service, in May 1960 it was filled for the first time to test leaks, one million and five hundred thousand liters of water entered it. In December 1960, ten years after the arrival of the first seminarians, the group was able to fall into the pool, which still has a water treatment and recycling plant.<\/p>\n
Throughout these 66 years of existence, the Santo Ant\u00f4nio Seminar has always had its wings full of seminarians, today brothers, priests and bishops at the service of the Church.<\/p>\n
The affection and care for this house never ceased to be a priority for every friar, former student or not. The place is also a source of pride for the city of Agudos.<\/p>\n
Mission: To be a welcoming Fraternity for friars, religious, priests and lay people in holding meetings, retreats and various events, through the Franciscan way of being. Being at the service of the local Church in the Parishes and Seminary and through evangelizing action, being a witness of prayer, service and joy, providing everyone with spiritual growth.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”188607″ img_size=”full” css_animation=”fadeInRight”][vc_single_image image=”188605″ img_size=”full” css_animation=”fadeInRight”][vc_single_image image=”188606″ img_size=”full” css_animation=”fadeInRight”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
