Dear Friends,
Praise be to God, the Archdiocese is now the owner of all the land formerly owned by the Scanlan Foundation!!! The Christian Renewal Center remains on 52 beautiful wooded acres. As requested by the Scanlan Foundation, details of the deal are not to be made public but rest assured, we are thrilled with the outcome. We are grateful for the Scanlan Foundations' generous support of the CRC and that of our Shepherds, Cardinal DiNardo, Bishop Italo, and all the Archdiocese clergy and staff that supported this endeavor.
When this came to light, and trusting in God's providence, we promised to build a Marian Grotto in thanksgiving for her intercession for the gift of the land. It is time to begin planning and funding this endeavor. If you made a pledge for the land and have yet to fulfill the pledge, we ask you to please submit your donation to the CRC.
Donations can be sent to CRC, PO Box 699, Dickinson, Texas 77539, or online at https://retreatcentercrc.org/save We also understand that when some people pledged a year ago, they might be in a different financial situation today and unable to give or at the same level.
Funds will go towards the Marian grotto, and any remaining funds will go towards other renovations needed at that time. Know that what you give will go towards building the Kingdom of God through the renovations at the CRC. Our goal is to be fully renovated by the 60th Anniversary of the retreat center in 2026!
God Bless,
Kim Brown
CRC Director
