Honor and Memorial Gifts are thoughtful ways to mark a special occasion or honor the life or memory of a relative or friend.

Every gift makes a difference – your gift makes a difference.

Since 1956 for men and 1994 for women, Guest House has been providing a unique Catholic faith-filled, community atmosphere for clergy and men and women religious who are suffering from addiction, regardless of their ability to pay.

 

We rely on the generosity of individuals, organizations, corporations, and foundations to carry out our ministry of providing the best opportunity for quality recovery and overall health and wellness.

 

These philanthropic efforts make it possible for Guest House to provide comprehensive addiction treatment and continuing care, develop education on topics related to addiction, and engage in addiction research to continue the excellent work of our mission.

“We place our roses into the earth for this time of nourishment, so that they will be held beneath the frozen ground where they will be prepared for what is to come. While they might otherwise survive, it is beneath the frozen tundra that makes them thrive”
Bridget Bearss, RSCJ

 

In the hush of winter, the clergy and religious at Guest House continue to work on their journey of recovery. Much like the roses, they get ready for what is next. While here, they regain the hope, patience, and strength that will allow them to return to serving the People of God. It is in their recovery they thrive and will bring the rays of God’s love to everyone they minister to once they leave Guest House. That is the miracle of recovery.

 

During this fallow time between the frost and the thaw, we count on your generosity to nurture the seeds Guest House sows – the seeds that grow into our clients’ ministry and shape the future of the Church. The clergy and religious appreciate your care and support and hold you in their daily prayers.

Rose’s Story: The Ripple Effect
“What you are learning here, you can take back to your ministry and save whole families – whole generations of families.” Rose, who provides client support services at Guest House, often shares this message with clergy and religious who come for treatment. We frequently hear stories about the powerful impact our alumni have on others. This is Rose’s story.

“My father was an alcoholic. There was stress in our home…and if he had continued drinking, his doctor said he would have died.” Rose’s mother’s dear friend who belonged to Al-Anon invited her to listen to dynamic Fr. Vaughan, a Guest House alumnus, speak about alcoholism. After hearing him, she joined her friend in Al-Anon. She later convinced Rose’s father to attend one of Fr. Vaughan’s talks. From that moment, he began attending AA meetings and adopted the spiritual principles of the program. “We were all healthier because our parents shared these principles with the entire family,” added Rose.

“For 20 years, they were in the program that saved our family.” Rose credits this life-saving transformation to the power of Fr. Vaughan’s message. “We have had innumerable blessings. Eight kids had a dad growing up because he stopped drinking. Our dad witnessed all of us graduate from college and marry. There are 47 grandkids and 36 great-grandkids, and thank heaven, everyone’s healthy, happy and stable.”

Treatment works and recovery is possible. We know the ripple effect of recovery on families, religious congregations, ministry settings, and parish communities is immeasurable.
