Joining the Tradition of Giving


The hearts of many are drawn to the encounter with Christ and to the spiritual freedom that are key graces of such an encounter.

Our hope is that this ministry of prayer will be available to all who seek these graces.  We have tried over the decades to keep retreat rates affordable and to make financial assistance available to any who needs it.

Maintaining the structure and home-like ambiance of St. Raphaela Center is a task without end, as we comply with safety guidelines, keep our buildings both comfortable and in good working order, and tend the 14 acres of garden, grounds, and paths.

Providing for the needs of our guests, extending to each a warm welcome, preparing and serving ample and nourishing meals, and making available skilled and caring spiritual directors requires a versatile and committed staff.

Checks can be mailed to:

St. Raphaela Center  616 Coopertown Rd.,  Haverford, PA 19041

Donations may also be given online.

Thank you for your support of this ministry.

Charitable bequests and other planned gifts each year play an important role in keeping alive St. Raphaela Center’s warmth and hospitality. Your gifts make you a partner in our ministry.
