Fr. Stephen Burr reflects on his time at Sacred Heart

Fr. Stephen Burr has spent half his life living, studying, working and ministering at Sacred Heart Major Seminary.“I always wanted to be a parish priest — that’s been the call — but I loved being a seminary formator. It’s been a passion of mine,” Fr. Burr said. “I’ve loved working with the men over the years, and I’ve loved being their priest.”Fr. Stephen Burr was ordained a priest in 2002. He’s been rector and president of Sacred Heart Major Seminary since 2021. At the end of June, Fr. Burr will move out of the seminary to begin his next assignment. He will return to parish life as part of the team of priests at St. Regis, St. Owen, Holy Name, and Our Lady Queen of Martyrs parishes, primarily serving at St. Regis Parish in Bloomfield Hills.
