[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Money is not a primary concern. We have plenty- not an exorbitant amount but enough to live very comfortably.

My primary concern at this stage is how to support my husband as he explores this. Any decision is likely a year or so away (based on when classes would begin) so we are using this time to prayer and discussion. [/quote]
If you have plenty of money to buy a house in another part of the country, go without income and be fine, have all the money you need for the basics of life, and you are sure this is not just a first step in him ditching you and the kids, what exactly is the worry then?
What happened to make him feel this way? Come on, you know what caused this 360 and why you are somewhat worried.[/quote]

I’m worried this is a big decision for someone relatively new to a relationship with Christ and religion. We have not engaged in much formal or group bible study (due largely in part to Covid) and I am concerned that he is jumping into seminary as a means to explore that before further exhausting our options for a meaningful life of service to God and the Church outside of a degree program.

It sounds like you may have prayed that your husband would grow closer to God and your religion, but didn't consider that he'd want to take it to the lengths of uprooting the family, going to seminary and becoming a priest.[/quote]
