Seminarian/Sister Care Package
Men and women in the formation process can sometimes feel as if they are in limbo. They have been called to serve God and his people and are eager to do so, but they have not been fully formed and trained to do such important work. They first must experience several years of intense study, continued introspection, and often sparse living accommodations. Given these circumstances, they should receive prayerful encouragement from the faithful in their diocese.
Some items besides gift cards that they might enjoy are: Stamps and Stationary, Coffee, Tickets to events in your town (think ballet, symphony, sports), CD’s of Religious Music, Movies or Movie Tickets, Money, Prayer!
Here is a newsletter blurb for the Gift Card Collection:
