Dear Friends,
We hope this message finds you well and filled with the spirit of goodwill. Last year, we embarked on a journey together to elevate the Montserrat retreat experience, and your incredible generosity made that vision a reality. As we look ahead to 2025, we are excited to share our plans and invite you to be part of this inspiring journey once again.
In 2024, the Montserrat Board of Trustees set a goal to raise $250,000, and your unwavering support exceeded our expectations. Thanks to your kindness, we accomplished significant milestones, including essential renovations to St. Joseph’s Hall. This progress was made while ensuring that everyone, regardless of financial ability, could participate in our retreats. For your invaluable support in sustaining our mission, we extend our heartfelt gratitude.
Our vision for 2025 is bold:
Begin much needed guest room renovations in Advent Hall.
Maintain our commitment to providing retreats at an accessible price.
Despite the rising costs of operation, we have not increased retreat fees in the last five years, allowing everyone the chance to experience spiritual renewal. With your help, we can continue to make retreats affordable and extend financial aid to those in need. This year our goal is to raise $250,000 with your support.
Your contribution, no matter the size, plays a pivotal role in realizing these goals. To make your tax-deductible donation, please fill out and return the enclosed card or visit our website at https://montserratretreat.org/agc, use the QR code, or call us at 940-321-6020.
