In early 2021, we announced that we were going to be undertaking a renovation project at St. Walburga Monastery. We are taking efforts to make the buildings on the grounds more energy efficient as well as right-sizing space for our Community, especially our infirmed Sisters. The plans are almost complete and work will soon begin.
We have preceded the actual start of construction by making a few much-needed repairs to preserve the original Motherhouse Mansion, a prominent building on North Broad St.
With the renovation project, we are planning to purchase new furniture as well as new medical home care beds to better equip our infirmed sisters with the conditions they need to continue to maintain a good quality of life.
During this giving season with so many options for you to support, we ask that you remember the Benedictine Sisters and make a donation towards our building fund or particularly towards the purchase of new beds and furniture for our infirmary. No donation is too large or small; it all helps to get us closer to the complete renovation of our monastery buildings. Your end of the year gift is 100% tax-deductible. If you would like to donate please mail your donation to the Benedictine Sisters, 851 N. Broad St., Elizabeth, NJ 07208 or donate online by visiting www.bensisnj.org/donate.
