What does Phase One consist of?

1.) COMPLETE THE SITE PREP: pulling the electric, digging the well, building the well house, the grading, and the foundation for the Chapel.

2.) BUILD THE CHAPEL: Through the generosity of Mrs. Connie Vitale, we have the funds for the construction of the Chapel buildingl!

3.) BUILD TWO MODULAR HOMES ON SITE: Through past experience we know the importance of being on site during construction. Therefore, once these houses are built, all the Sisters will relocate to Tonopah. One house will serve as our living quarters, while the other house will serve as a place of retreat for priests. Once the monastery is completed, both houses will remain as permanent structures on the grounds - serving as retreat houses for priests and laity.
