Hi friends and family,
For Laura Padron’s 65th birthday, we want to give her something truly meaningful — not just a gift, but a spiritual journey of a lifetime.
If you know my mom, you’ve felt her love and the depth of her heart. She gives without hesitation, supports without question, and has never sought recognition — only opportunities to serve. A woman of grace and quiet sacrifice, I invite you to join me in honoring her life of devotion with the gift of sacred renewal.
We’re raising $10,000 to send Laura on an 11-day pilgrimage through Poland, happening May 15, 2026 — a journey that reflects her deepest spiritual devotion: St. Joseph.
One of the most sacred stops on this pilgrimage is the National Shrine of St. Joseph in Kalisz, Poland — a holy site dedicated to his protection and guidance. For someone who has prayed to St. Joseph for strength, family, and wisdom her whole life, this is more than a visit — it’s a homecoming of the heart.
Along the way, Laura will also walk in the footsteps of St. John Paul II and St. Faustina, celebrating daily Mass, joining fellow pilgrims in prayer, and experiencing places she has only ever dreamed of seeing.
This journey is one of healing, inspiration, and renewal — a sacred gift for 65 years of grace, love, and unwavering faith.
Your donation will help cover:
✈️ Airfare and travel expenses
️ Lodging and meals
Transportation between holy sites
️ Entry to churches and sacred locations
A once-in-a-lifetime gift of spiritual renewal
Whether you’re able to give $5 or $500, every bit helps — and most importantly, we ask that you keep Laura in your prayers as we prepare for this beautiful chapter of her journey.
Thank you for being part of her story and helping make this dream come true.
With love and gratitude,
Jon & Valeria Padron, and Michael & Angelina Borders
