This Order survives on the donations and contributions of the Faithful of Christ.
We have 5 funds in which we need to fund at this time. (Each PayPal button takes you to that Funds category so we know how to deposit the funds in our bank! So click on the Donate Button directly below the Fund you wish to support!)
First and foremost is the need to raise funds for our initial house. For this fund we need to raise roughly $500,000 US to acquire an existing building and land that will house the first few members of the Order as well as be a home of our garden we plan on raising to help feed us.
Our second fund we are working on concurrently with the first fund is a Education Fund, in which we will use to educate our Brothers and Friars so as to grow teachers of the Catholic Faith at various levels of schooling. This is an open ended fund that will always be open.
Our third fund we are working on concurrently with the previous two funds is a Seminary Fund. This fund is to send our Friars that are called to Priesthood on to Seminary. This fund will end once we have the required Friars in place to have our own Seminary.
The fourth fund we need to fund is our Mother House Fund of $25,000,000. This will acquire a 15 acre plot of land, clean it up, and build a 60 room Friary and a 50 room Retreat House.
The final, and long lasting fund we need to fund is our General Fund. From this fund we will live off of and pay our bills as needed in life. This is an open fund.
If you are able to help us out please send your cash donations, by check or money order to:
The Order of Brothers of Reconciliation
PO Box 187
Ironton, OH 45638-0187
Checks may be made out to The Order of Brothers of Reconciliation, OBR, or Brothers Of Reconciliation. We are a 501c3 compliant organization. All donations are tax deductible!
We plan on opening a store in the near future in which you can purchase Catholic religious items to help us as well.
Thank you in advance!
In Christ!
Friar Don Bell, OBR
acting Superior General
*** Until recently we had PayPal Links on our site to accept donations, but it has come to our attention that the views and actions of eBay, the owners of PayPal, are not in almost any form, Christian centric, and they support venues, publicly, that this Order is able to support, so we will no longer use PayPal (or eBay) going forward. Please consider this in your actions as well! In Christ!
