Sending flowers is a common way to extend comfort to family and friends when a loved one dies. However, more people are asking their loved ones to share a gift with St. Joseph’s Lakota children in place of flowers, because it:
- Memorializes a loved one through prayer.
- Reminds family and friends of your prayerful respect and compassion.
- Provides for the needs of Lakota (Sioux) youngsters at St. Joseph’s Indian School.
When you share a gift with St. Joseph’s Indian School in lieu of flowers, we will:
- Send a card on your behalf to the loved one’s family.
- Enroll the deceased in our prayer program.
- Remember your loved one in our monthly Novena.
- Send a special acknowledgment letter from Fr. Greg.
- Use your gift wisely to provide for the daily needs of the Lakota boys and girls in our care.
For families wishing to designate St. Joseph’s Indian School to receive gifts in lieu of flowers, gifts may be made online at: stjo.org/flowers.
