I assume the student had no one close enough to ask, so consider it an honor you were chosen, take the candidate out to dinner, talk briefly about faith, be nice, and move on. There is no need for folow up, just your willingness to be sponsor. . a gift iof an age appropriate religious book or article would be nice.
