Benedictine work
35 years after our foundation, the time has come to build a larger church for our monastery.
The new church will not only facilitate our contemplative life, but will also allow us to welcome a greater number of believers, which has been growing increasingly due to the large families that have come to live around Santa Cruz.

FIRST PHASE GOAL: $ 21,000.00
Architectural project
We already have the project for the church and its surroundings, kindly carried out by a monk from the Monastery of Nossa Senhora da Fé e do Rosário. However, the architectural project that will take care of the arrangement of the modules that make up the church and its exterior appearance is necessary.
Structural design
This project will be necessary for us to complete the work on the church and have detailed budget for the entire construction, essential for us to begin the second stage of fundraising, as well as obtain authorizations for construction.
Soil earthworks
The preparation of the soil will guarantee the stability of the construction and the adequate cleaning of the land where the church will be located, which today requires this preparation in order to receive the structural foundations. With this step, the execution of the project will be unimpeded.
OF THIS GOAL WE HAVE ALREADY ACHIEVED:
100%
