Supporting CSJB

TO SUPPORT
OUR GENERAL FUND

Like many nonprofits, CSJB has had a difficult time covering our monthly operating costs over the course of the pandemic.

If you'd like to help us continue our ministries, please consider making a gift to our general fund through our new online Paypal portal:

https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/CommunityofStJohnBap
​

Your gift will help us to continue to provide spiritual direction, prayer, and assistance to so many who are in need including the Good Shepherd Home for Children, our local food pantries, the elderly and sick, and all who come to us seeking God's guidance and comfort in this anxious time.

Many thanks to all of you who have helped us through this crisis.
​
We could not do what we do without YOU.

TO SUPPORT
OUR
CAPITAL CAMPAIGN

Dear Friends,

We Sisters of the Community of St. John Baptist welcome you to spend time among us for retreat and solitude, as well as for worship and fellowship. Each year, thousands of people visit our wooded hilltop for retreats and workshops, spiritual direction, religious services, healing, and recreation. Besides our ministry here in New Jersey, we also help support the Good Shepherd Home for Children in Cameroon, West Africa.

Our Community has now been here for over 100 years, so our buildings are well over 100 years old. Our Sisters, however, bring new energy and commitment as we experience a renewed call to reach out to God's people. Today, our outreach includes persons of all faiths who are young and old, rich and poor, active and contemplative.

In order to follow our call in this new century, we need the help of those who share our vision. You can make a difference by joining us in our mission, both to spiritual seekers and to people in need, to maintain this place of prayer for all who seek God.

We continue our work in faith that our income will be adequate to sustain our life and ministry. Help us to make this possible!

Faithfully yours,

Sr. Monica Clare, Superior, CSJB
