2024 All Souls' Day Appeal

In the cemetery at St. Paul’s Monastery 201 vowed religious women are at rest from their earthly labors. This monastery has served the local church and the world for 76 years in countless ministries, parishes, and individual relationships. This ministry has been to empower and sustain ancient Benedictine values and practices in every person.

We feel their presence still, we lovingly embrace their memory, and peacefully know of their prayers as we continue to serve here and now.

You are invited to honor deceased Sisters, Associates, Oblates and others who witnessed to you Benedictine values with a gift to the All Souls Appeal. Every dollar raised supports our current Monastic community of 18 Sisters, 2 Associates, and 189 Oblates. Your gift ensures that all are welcomed as Christ in their seeking after the Benedictine way of life.

Personally, I will be making a monthly/recurring gift honoring the six Sisters who have died since I started on staff (S. Agnes, S. Bonita, S. Rosemary, S. Carol, S. Mary Claire, S. Andriette). Looking at my personal finances and pledging support for the year I am making a $30 monthly gift supporting these six amazing vowed religious Sisters.

I invite you to join me and to consider a gift meaningful to you supporting the Benedictine life here at St. Paul’s Monastery and its Benedictine Center. We have so much to be grateful for and a future so full of hope.

That in all things God may be glorified!

Pax et bonum,

Travis Salisbury, OblSB
