A Legacy of Tradition: Fifty Years of Saint Thomas Aquinas Seminary


This documentary chronicles the remarkable 50-year journey of Saint Thomas Aquinas Seminary, a cornerstone of the Society of Saint Pius X’s (SSPX) apostolate in the United States. Founded by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre in 1973, the Seminary serves as the house of study for the formation of the SSPX’s priests. 

Through exclusive interviews, archival footage, and firsthand accounts, "A Legacy of Tradition" explores the Seminary’s commitment to preserving the traditional Catholic priesthood. From its humble beginnings in Armada, Michigan, to its current home in Dillwyn, Virginia, the film traces the trials, triumphs, and spiritual resilience that have defined this institution. Highlighting the enduring vision of Archbishop Lefebvre, the documentary celebrates the Seminary’s role in fostering vocations while offering hope for the restoration of Catholic Tradition in America and beyond. A testament to Divine Providence, the Seminary’s story will inspire Catholics with its message of perseverance and hope in God’s providence.
