We Need Your Help
There are several ways you can help.

Pray For Us

First and foremost, please pray for us. As we endeavor to fulfill God's will for us and seek our salvation together in a monastic community, we face many trials and temptations.

Our vocation is to love God and our neighbor, and it is only by freeing ourselves from bondage to our passions, fallenness, and egocentrism, that we can do this.

Remember us and pray for us as we seek our salvation in community.

Buy Our Products

The Apostle Paul commanded the Thessalonians to "...do your own business, and to work with your own hands..." (1 Thes. 4:11). Since we all live in one place and have no outside employment, we rely on what we can produce here at the monastery to earn our daily bread. By endorsing monastery products, you help us to fulfill the monastic ideal of working with our own hands to provide for earthly necessities.

Please buy our products! Put Monastery candles in your churches, bury your loved ones in Monastery caskets, buy our books and icons (God-willing the store will be back online soon) subscribe to Divine Ascent Journal and come to our retreats and seminars. Know that by choosing to purchase monastery products you are providing work for a brother giving him a context for his spiritual growth in obedience and a means to keep him occupied and undistracted as he practices the Jesus Prayer.

Contribute Financially

Please help us with our monthly mortgage. We need people to pledge on a monthly basis to help us with the mortgage (about $5,000 per month). This support would allow us time to get established, work at our ministry, and work at our industries.

Become a Major Donor

There are four categories of major donors:

Founders, over $10,000;

Builders, over $5,000;

Benefactors, over $1,000.

Stewards are those who pledge $100 or more per month. Our major donors will be appropriately recognized, and commemorated permanently in the services of the Monastery.

All our friends and benefactors are remembered daily with thanksgiving to God. We also entreat your prayers for us, for our work and those whose lives we touch.

Please consider how you can help us fulfill our vision.
