Santa for Seafarers

Every year for the past 40 plus years, the Galveston Seafarers Center has collected Christmas gifts from the community to deliver aboard ships that will be in port throughout the month of December.  The gifts are delivered by our port deacons and volunteers.  Many times, these are the only gifts that many seafarers will receive this Christmas! 

Please consider filling and wrapping a shoe box size container with these treasures and dropping them off the parish office or in the collection bin located in the vestibule of the church. 

Suggested Gift Box Items 

Anything else you think that a seafarer would need!

Please do not put candy or food items in the boxes.  If you wish to donate candy or cookies for the seafarers for the holidays, you may donate them separately.  They will be taken out to the ships along with the gift boxes.  Thank you!
