Sustaining Member

Genesis depends on the ongoing generosity of friends and supporters who believe in the power of hope, healing, and hospitality. By becoming a Sustaining Member, you provide dependable monthly support that helps Genesis Spiritual Life and Conference Center remain a place of quiet reflection, spiritual renewal, and connection with the Divine throughout the year. Each spring, we also invite our community to join our annual “Rooted in Love” Pledge Drive, which helps strengthen and expand this sacred ministry for the year ahead. Whether you begin your sustaining commitment today or make a special one-time gift during our spring appeal, your generosity helps ensure that Genesis continues to welcome all who seek peace, meaning, and renewal.

Why Genesis Matters

At Genesis, guests of all faiths, spiritual paths, and walks of life find a contemplative environment where body, mind, and spirit are renewed, and where care for Earth is woven into daily life. Founded by the Sisters of Providence and nourished for decades through prayerful generosity, Genesis has grown into a true spiritual home—offering:

  • Retreats and spiritual renewal programs
  • Wholeness and ecology experiences
  • Creative and arts-based opportunities
  • Meeting and event space in a peaceful, contemplative setting

Our Providence Arboretum and historic buildings create a welcoming landscape where people can slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with the Divine.

How Your Sustaining Gift Helps

Your sustaining gift strengthens what makes Genesis unique. Monthly support helps us:

  • Enhance the guest experience in our rooms, chapel, and gathering spaces
  • Upgrade technology and audiovisual systems for retreats, presentations, and hybrid/online offerings
  • Care for our 19acre campus—paths, trees, and outdoor spaces that invite quiet encounter with creation
  • Keep retreat programs accessible and affordable through tuition assistance for elders and others with limited financial resources

Every contribution—monthly or onetime—directly supports the hospitality, beauty, and contemplative atmosphere that our guests cherish.

Become a Sustaining Member

By becoming a Sustaining Member, you join a community of supporters whose ongoing gifts provide a steady foundation for this sacred ministry.

You may also make a one-time contribution that will be put to work right away to refresh guest spaces, update technology, and strengthen program offerings.

Grounded in Love, Growing Through Kindness

Every gift is a tangible way of saying “yes” to hope, healing, and hospitality. Together, we can remain grounded in love and grow through kindness, ensuring that Genesis continues to be a refuge of peace for generations to come.
