Events

Seton Heritage Discovery, our events and programs department, provides a historical and spiritual experience through service, education, community, and social activities.
Balancing the demands of a largely secular culture with the teachings of the Catholic Church is an everyday occurrence. Not only can it be difficult to even distinguish what our faith teaches, it can be even trickier to determine how to apply these teachings in the "real world."
We really envision Seton Heritage Discovery as being driven by young adults of the Basilica of National Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. We hope to host at least one official event each month, whether it is a social activity, an educational opportunity, or a chance to serve our community.
