Dear Pastors,
This summer Bishop DeGrood will send a letter to the graduating seniors in our Diocese so that he can personally congratulate and encourage them to seek God’s will in their lives. To make this possible we are requesting the following information from them: names, cell phone number, parent’s names, addresses, sex and plans after graduation for all seniors.
In conjunction with Bishop’s letter, in the past several years, the Vocations Office has used college information to help keep our youth connected with their Catholic faith while they are at school. This has been done with the aid of the SERRA Clubs in our Diocese through a program called College Connection.
Through this program, letters are sent out to the seniors, encouraging them to get involved in the local Catholic community at the school they will be attending. The information given will only be forwarded on to the Newman Centers and Catholic Campus Ministry organizations that they will be attending in our Diocese. This will help our campus ministers connect your students to other Catholic students and Catholic events. It is our hope that with this information we can keep more of our young people connected with the practice of their Catholic Faith and continue to flourish as Lifelong Catholic Missionary Disciples Through God’s Love!
Link to the Google Form you can share with your senior parents to fill in for their seniors:
Please have them fill in the Google form by May 1st. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for all that you do to promote religious vocations.
Father Michael Kapperman
