Dear Friend of Bethany,
We invite you to be a partner with the Religious of Jesus and Mary in supporting the ministry of Bethany Spirituality Center. Your donation to the annual appeal will assist us in making the retreat experience of Bethany affordable for all and maintaining the property that many refer to as “holy ground”. Bethany has been a ministry of our community for more than thirty-five years. We believe it is a ministry close to the hearts of Jesus and Mary, and St. Claudine Thevenet, our foundress. We look forward to many years of continued service. To this end, we have recently established an endowment fund for the benefit of Bethany.

God has blessed our ministry this year in the many women and men who have been our guests. They frequently indicate that God has also blessed them through the gift that our Sisters, lay associates, and experience of Bethany have been. For some, it is the grace-filled suggestion or helpful insight that a spiritual director offered; and for others, the atmosphere of hospitality and peacefulness. We are grateful and inspired that so many experience the healing love of God in our midst.

On behalf of all, we wish to thank you in advance for whatever support you might provide. Please know that you are in our hearts and prayers.

Sincerely,

Claire Dandeneau, RJM...............Richard C. Green
