Cookies for College Students
Our Little Sisters can sometimes be seen setting out to visit college campuses, where they encounter the students and invite them to our Home for service experiences and vocational discernment. But the Sisters do not go empty-handed! In order to help make the connection between old and young, they bring homemade cookies, freshly baked by our Residents. These cookies are always a hit, as they convey to the students the genuine interest and caring that our Residents have for them.
The elderly whom we serve are always happy to be a part of the Little Sisters’ outreach in this way – and even happier when the students show up at our door – which they often do! – ready to experience in person the joy and friendship with which God has blessed our St. Joseph’s Residence family.
Richard is pictured here preparing the next batch, and later in the day two FOCUS missionaries on campus can be seen teasing each other about who will get the last bite of the last cookie.
