Founded
and named after Apostle Paul in
1956. Its modern birth place is
Tore in Yei River District. The
Major seminary operated in Tore
until 1964, the year all Christian
missionaries were expelled from the
country. During the crisis, the
staff and seminarians temporally
stayed in Kit, near Juba until 1965.
When war and violence intensified,
the whole seminary community
relocated to Uganda across the
borders. Seminarians in Uganda
wandered for their formation between
Gulu, Gaba, Katigondo and Moroto.
After the Addis Ababa Accord, the
seminary reopened in Juba in 1973.
In 1975 the seminary moved to Busere,
Wau. The Bishops in 1978 formally
decided to move the Orientation to
Juba. In 1987 it transferred to
Khartoum, Shambat. Due to war
disturbances, Theology was moved
from Juba in 1990, followed by
Philosophy in 1992.
