St. John XXIII College Connection… Remembering and encouraging our members in college
This ministry is our way of communicating with the college students from our parish by reaching out to them in various ways throughout the year. One of the most critical times is when they are starting out as freshmen - and as a faith community we want to do what we can to support them in any way we can. We will of course be holding them up in prayer, but we would also like to send some periodic words of encouragement, especially in those first important weeks. Later in the semester during finals, we will be sending care packages to all our college students to help strengthen them physically and spiritually!
This spring, we are doing something different. Since most of our young people are studying at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we will be sending cards of support. We would also like to send gift cards for coffee or other treats so they can take a break and re-energize themselves. We can only do this, however, by your financial support. Any amount is greatly appreciated. (We normally send about 60 boxes and we anticipate sending at least that many cards this spring.)
