The Experience

“The Benedictine Hospitality experience was so great and deeply felt.  As always, God’s presence in this beautiful and heavenly place makes me feel blessed and cared for.  Hope I can come back for the 3^rd time!”

We receive communications like the above from so many guests after their visit to Holy Name Monastery.

For most it is no ordinary experience.  Reasons for those who reach-out to us vary from the joy and celebration of faith to the crushing blow of losing a loved one.  Whatever the reason, closeness to and a better understanding of God is the desire.  In the quiet, in walks on the property, reflection in the chapel, time to just be — the experience is often life changing.

Our prayer is to help guests experience what they are in need of so that when they leave this place, they feel a renewal and a confidence that they are not alone.  God is present in their lives.

As a supporter of our mission, you know such work has great value and you know funds raised are preciously and respectfully stewarded by the Sisters.  We ask that you share this message with your social network.  Give friends, family and colleagues the opportunity to know the joy of helping to change lives.  As an Ambassador for our cause, you can further help seekers, the needy, the elderly and those looking for direction in our chaotic world.

Even $5.00 donations on Giving Tuesday makes a difference and collectively can help ensure that our 2021 Goal of $30,000 is successful.
