The Ronkonkoma Cenacle Building Campaign

The Ronkonkoma Cenacle Sisters construction project for the New Ronkonkoma Cenacle Retreat Center & Convent is close to completion.  To support the building project, the Adopt a Tree, Brick Pathway and General Building Fund Campaigns are being offered.  These are beautiful ways to honor or memorialize loved ones.  A gift to the Ronkonkoma Cenacle by lending your name or the name of a special person from your life will leave lasting dedication and support to the Sisters.

The Adopt a Tree Campaign provides the Sisters wit support for a tree planted on the grounds of the Ronkonkoma Cenacle.  Your dedication will be listed on a lovely plaque near the tree.

The Brick Pathway Campaign offers the opportunity for two brick sizes for engraving that will be placed on the brick pathway from the southwest portion of the building.  The pathway will overlook the pond.

.Prayer Enrollment Cards and Folders
Since 1917, when Mother Mary Shannon was inspired by St. Therese Couderc's own words "...I saw written as in letters of gold this word Goodness..." to begin the Cenacle Prayer Enrollment Ministry, countless people have sent or received a beautiful Cenacle prayer enrollment. When you send someone a Cenacle prayer enrollment, your are sending the gift of prayer. No other gift speaks so profoundly. Those enrolled are remembered in monthly masses, in the daily prayers of the Sisters, and in the prayers of the many friends and benefactors of the Cenacle. Your offering for an enrollment helps to support the Cenacle Sisters and their ministries.  There is a Cenacle prayer enrollment card or folder for all events and occasions -- birthdays, sympathy, anniversaries and special intentions to name a few. Each card and folder is custom-inscribed in gold ink by a Cenacle calligrapher. To order, simply click on the Prayer Enrollment link at any of the Cenacle locations that offer enrollments.

Special Events

In addition to retreats, days of prayer and other programs, many of our Retreat Houses hold special events throughout the year such as concerts, teas, galas, golf outings, etc. To join in the fun while at the same time helping to support our work, check the page of the nearest Cenacle on this web site to find out the latest event in your neck of the woods.

Please call the Office of Development at 631-471-0024 if you have questions.
