The funds applied for by the International Christian Maritime Association to the ITF Seafarers\u2019 Trust were granted specifically for festive outreach to seafarers. The Baltimore mission, affiliated with The Mission to Seafarers network, operates in the Port of Baltimore and normally sees about 1,700 seafarers during their Christmas giving season. The ITF Seafarers&#8217; Trust funding is extremely helpful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe extra ITF Seafarers Trust funds have allowed us to give to an additional 100 seafarers,\u201d said the Reverend Mary Davisson, director and chaplain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without delay, Davisson began to order items to include in the Christmas packages for seafarers. Something to bring some extra cheer in this holiday season away from home. Basic needs are the target. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\nselected high quality hand cream and lip balm,\u201d she said. \u201cThese gifts are quality\npersonal care items as many of these workers are commonly from warm climates working\nin extreme weather on ships.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A toothbrush and toothpaste may seem a dismissible Christmas gift, but not so. The practical toiletries included in the gifts are an expression of a greater global outreach of caring for those who work on ships, fishers and families. When combined with something to read, hand-knit stocking caps, socks or snacks, even a toothbrush means someone cares. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\nhave to be selective also,\u201d said Davisson. \u201cWe never have enough. We try to\ngive to those who may not be in a port at Christmas or may not have received a\ngift from a previous port.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before\nthe global pandemic, the practice of Christmas deliveries when gifts were\nbrought onboard was to visit with seafarers or the captain, perhaps gathering\ntogether in the mess room. Due to the lack of opportunity to move about,\nDavisson and dedicated volunteers deliver at the top of the gangway with little\ntime for reaction or interaction. Eye contact means a lot. Beyond facemasks and\nthe loud rumble of the ship, the chaplain and volunteers can see that seafarers\nare very grateful.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf\nwe can\u2019t say as much as we want to with words, we can express our care in\ntangible ways. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These\ngifts help to bridge conversations,\u201d she said.&nbsp;&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many seafarers who will be at sea over the holiday season will have been away from home for more than a year already due to the pandemic. Their dangerous profession, compounded by COVID-19 restrictions finds isolation as a heavy cloud onboard leaving them particularly vulnerable to depression and emotional stress when far from families and holiday traditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Port\nministries seek to change that through electronic communications between chaplains\nand those on board and through moments like these. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nChristmas gift-giving programs reflect the greater work of the Baltimore\nInternational Seafarers\u2019 Center of caring for seafarers including providing access\nto Wi-Fi, emotional support and advocacy when needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This personal extension from land to sea inspires community groups to get involved. Each year, organizations and individuals partner giving literature, homemade stocking hats, or socks. With the addition of the ITF funds it clearly represents a broad community of support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI really like that the community gifts are combined with the ITF Seafarers&#8217; Trust grant funds,\u201d said the Episcopal director. \u201cIt reflects the diversity of those who care about seafarers.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further\nsouth another seafarers\u2019 center serving one of the largest ports on the U.S. East\nCoast also benefitted from grant funds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen\nITF stepped up, it fell right into place,\u201d said Charleston Port and Seafarers\nSociety mission administrator, Clark Cromwell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Charleston, stevedoring businesses, sailing and kayaking clubs, port-related organizations, churches and others join to fill gift boxes. In a normal year, these ministry partners receive empty plastic boxes from the seafarers\u2019 center and return them filled with specific gifts for seafarers. This year, the volunteers were willing and waiting, but there were no funds for the boxes until Cromwell applied for the global grant funds and also received $750 from the ITF Seafarers\u2019 Trust via ICMA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the ITF Seafarers&#8217; Trust grant, seafarers in Charleston will have gifts this year.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\nwas a big relief,\u201d said Cromwell. \u201cWe had tried to address the deficit in other\nways, but it didn\u2019t cover. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe\nenthusiasm to fill the boxes among businesses and congregations has been\nsurprisingly good,\u201d said Cromwell. \u201cWe have already given out 3,700 boxes to be\nfilled. Last year, All Saints Lutheran took 50 boxes to fill. This year they\nhave filled 77 so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cIt has been great to accommodate a higher\nresponse for gift boxes than normal at this difficult time. The need and\nopportunity for ministry to these brothers and sisters (seafarers) is\ntremendous,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For\nsome households giving to seafarers began as an Advent project and became a\ngreat teaching for children, according to the Reverend Jeff Wallace, chaplain\nto the seafarers and associate pastor at St. George Episcopal Church in\nSummerville, South Carolina. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s\nincredible, the impact these gifts makes on the seafarers,\u201d he said. \u201cThey are\nas excited as kids at Christmas, always received with a smile and\nappreciation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Charleston Port and Seafarers Society began to distribute the filled gift boxes to ships December 1. Each includes a holiday greeting from the ITF Seafarers\u2019 Trust and a note acknowledging seafarers\u2019 sacrifices and thanking them for their service. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Photo: Courtesy of Rev.
