Support Our Monastic Community
Mother of the Redeemer Monastery depends on the kindness of benefactors to continue our life of prayer, hospitality, and service in the Diocese of Lafayette. Every gift — large or small — helps sustain our monks, maintain our grounds, and support our growing community.
We invite you to partner with us through prayer, financial contributions, or planned giving. Your support directly aids our liturgical life, the care of our elder monks, and the formation of new vocations.
Prayer is the first and most meaningful way to stand alongside our monastic community. When you hold our monks, our guests, and our future vocations in your intentions, you become part of something far greater than a single gift. The rhythm of our days is built around the Liturgy of the Hours and the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and knowing that friends near and far are lifting us up in prayer strengthens our resolve to faithfully answer our calling. We invite you to join us in this spiritual partnership, whether by offering a quiet moment of intercession at home or by requesting that our community remember your own intentions in our daily prayers.
Beyond one-time gifts, many benefactors choose to make a lasting impact through recurring support or planned giving arrangements. Thoughtful estate planning, memorial gifts, and other intentional forms of stewardship allow you to leave a legacy that will sustain our life of prayer and hospitality for generations to come. Such gifts help ensure that our elder monks receive the care they deserve, that our grounds remain beautiful and welcoming, and that young men discerning a monastic vocation can be formed and supported in their journey. We are deeply grateful for every benefactor who considers the monastery in their long-term plans, and we are committed to honoring your generosity with transparency and care.
Every contribution, regardless of size, flows directly into the daily life of our monastery and the people we serve. From maintaining our sacred spaces to welcoming retreatants and guests who seek quiet and renewal, your generosity touches countless lives in ways both seen and unseen. Our community in the Diocese of Lafayette exists to be a place of prayer, peace, and hospitality, and none of that would be possible without the faithful support of friends like you. We humbly ask you to consider how you might share in this mission, knowing that whatever you offer is received with heartfelt gratitude and put to good use in service of God and neighbor.
