Letters from home

Every once in a while a seminarian is bound to get letters from credit card companies, bills that he doesn't want to deal with, but then a large manilla envelope with a school or church's return address arrives in his mailbox. Within that large envelope are notes from parishioners, the pastor, and children. The letters from children bring a smile to my face, because they are so fun to read. Some will talk about sports, some will write about their family and include a stick-figure drawing of everyone, and others will ask a lot of questions. These letters are always a reminder of the fact that I am being supported in prayer by a large number of people. I am thankful to God for the people of South Dakota and for their continued support. I know my brothers can attest to how much they appreciate simple notes from people in their respective dioceses.
