The Imaculate Conception Monastery

In these uncertain times, is important to ensure that your values are instilled in and are a part of the communities you live and work in. At the heart of these communities are the Passionist Priests and Brothers of the Immaculate Conception Monastery. Their work has a sustaining and positive effect that impacts everyone’s quality of life in New York. Each day they carry on the humble tasks of making sure that all people’s needs are tended to in the traditions of the Passionist values – Christian values – Your values.

To keep their efforts alive, each of us plays an important role. We are calling on you to support us, as many generous others have, by participating in our planned giving programs. People give charitable gifts for a variety of reasons. Some give because they believe it helps society; some people appreciate the tax benefit and many give from a sense of gratitude or "e;being blessed". And while all these reasons for giving are valuable, recognizing the impact these gifts make is priceless.

For the poor and destitute – they bring a glimmer of hope; for the mentally and emotionally sick – they bring comfort and security; for our youth – they bring a grounding that is constantly being disrupted by self serving influences; and for adults – they bring confidence that we can live with integrity and balance amongst corrupting and demoralizing forces.

As Catholics and friends of this community, we look to the teachings of Christ and ask – "but Isn’t love enough?" or "Is love enough?" The answer is YES! LOVE IS ENOUGH! But, we need to realize that for love to be enough in this modern world, it needs to be supported by and inspire action. As a member and friend of this community, we ask that you follow Christ’s example and do what you can to sustain the values that have been the foundation of your life and that which perpetuates all that is good in our neighborhoods. You can make a profound difference today by pledging a charitable gift to The Passionists of the Immaculate Conception Monastery.
