When Seraphim was in "active" ministry, he would lead us in Street Retreats. I recently came across the tract we produced for use in these retreats.
The following are photos of his personal booklet which contain his handwritten notes.

I also came across a poem that Seraphim wrote while on the streets of Louisville:
"Street Beads" by Seraphim
These beads, pregnant with existence
impregnating existence,
existing in an expectant loneliness
that is strength.
Loneliness birthing from freedom
Freedom birthing from loneliness.
Those seeking this "Freedom Child"
are always marginalized,
marginalized because, it is an
"illegitimate" Freedom to be lonely,
Yet, and yet, I am lonely,
alone with these beads, these streets,
birthing, birthing an ongoing
conception
bead by bead, womb by womb,
street by street.
I am in good company.
