3 Gift Ideas when a Child Chooses an Obscure Confirmation Saint

What do you get a boy who chooses an obscure saint for his Confirmation and already has a Bible, multiple rosaries, saint statues, saint books, and more?

That was a question around here when my son chose St. Peter Yu Tae-Chol as his Confirmation saint.

As we considered what gifts we might give him to commemorate his Confirmation, we were stymied.

He already had the one book I could find that shares St. peter Yu Tae-Chol's story: Radiate: More Stories of Daring Saints.

And, in searching for gifts, we only found one St. Peter Yu Tae-Chol item - a cute little wooden block by Almond Toys, a gift my parents ordered for my son.

Thus we had to get creative, and...

1 - A Medal with a Sport or Activity Your Child Likes

My folks decided to just get a baseball player medal for my son and to have it blessed. Why? So he could remember something he was enjoying and getting stronger with around the same time as his Confirmation.

My son loved the gift and wears it regularly!

2 - A Journal with a Related Quote

Meanwhile, I decided to go with a Be Strong & Courageous journal, because my son's patron saint was, indeed strong and courageous and I figured the Scripture passage would remind him of his saint's fortitude and intercession whenever he looked at it.

3 - An Unconventional Zazzle Design

Stuck for another idea, I happened upon baseballs at Zazzle and decided to design one for our son to remind him to always hit the mark of following Christ and, in doing so, to soar with the Spirit.

He absolutely loved it!
