Christmas for the Seminarians

Worthy Brothers, 

Our focus is Faith and Family and as such the Michigan Knights of Columbus want to thank our Seminarians from their dedication to the priesthood at Christmas.  We currently have 105 Seminarians attending Sacred Heart Major Seminary from throughout the State of Michigan.  Our Worthy State Chaplain, Rev. Aidan Logan, OCSO, has helped with our project and has selected a toiletry travel bag that will have the Knights of Columbus emblem on it and presented to the Seminarians for Christmas.

On Saturday, December 10th, while the men are attending the Winter Leadership meeting in Grand Rapids, the ladies will be filling the beautiful travel bags with items specifically for our Seminarians. 

This is where the Councils come in.  We are asking you to reach out to your councils and ask them to consider making a monetary donation toward this project to help offset the cost.   The Ladies of the Board will take care of doing the buying and acquiring the items Fr. Logan feels are needed for the inside of the bags.  Your job is just to help fund the project and show the Seminarians how blessed we are to have them follow their calling into the priesthood. 

Donations should be made payable to the Michigan State Council and in the memo line state “Seminarian Christmas”.  Checks should be mailed to the Michigan State Council Office at 6025 Wall Street, Sterling Heights, MI  48312 or brought directly to the Winter Leadership meeting and turn in at registration.
