The Brothers and Sisters have been working with excellent architects and engineers to design a proper sanctuary for Our Lady’s Heart — one that can accommodate more than 200 worshippers, at our Center in Richmond, New Hampshire. And because building prices have plummeted, a respected New England contractor has given us a price tag of only $750,000 for this gem. That price tag is very reasonable, given the nature of the project; it is, after all, a church building!
We need your support to build it. Can you give a gift of $25, $50, $100, or even $1,000 for the glory of God’s majesty and the exultation of the Immaculate Heart of Mary? If so, you can donate now, or make a pledge.In the new IHM Chapel, the Brothers and Sisters will memorialize our major gift donors with a large plaque at the entrance. Utilizing one of Saint Benedict Center’s cherished “memory items,” we will arrange your names according to the order of the heavenly hierarchy:
Seraphim: $100,000 or more
Cherubim: $50,000-$99,999
Thrones: $40,000-$49,999
Dominions: $30,000-$39,999
Virtues: $20,000-$29,999
Powers: $10,000-$19,999
Principalities: $5,000-$9,999
Archangels: $2,500-4,999
Angels: $1000-$2,499
In the name of the Queen of Angels, whose Immaculate Heart this chapel will honor, I am asking you to join the celestial choirs. In these days, when church closings are a sad reality for dioceses all across the nation, doesn’t it feel great to erect a new house of worship for the honor of God and the exaltation of the Blessed Virgin Mary?
How much can you pledge?
