Mary, Mother of Priests
Chapel of 1000 Priests

Funding for Guadalupe House, Saint Joseph Hermitage, and Annunciation Women's Vita Dei House, comes, in part, from those who sponsor a priest (canonized or otherwise) in Mary, Mother of Priests Chapel. One of the plaques with sponsored priests is shown here.
Sponsorship of $180 per priest can be made on this link.
Priests may or may not be canonized.
The plaques are on the wall of Mary, Mother of Priests Chapel where Evening Prayer is prayed in community at 5 pm on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The public is welcome to join.

Chapel in Memoriam
Chapel is dedicated to Dom Julian Stead, OSB, 2nd Visitor (Spiritual Guardian) to the Confraternity of Penitents


Chapel houses the religious habit of Father John Broderick, who had been a Greymoor Franciscan priest. Fr. Broderick died on the same day and at the same time as Saint Teresa of Calcutta. The Vita Dei Houses use his habit in celebrating the Transitus of Saint Francis on October 3.

Entrance to the Chapel is via Br. Peter's Parlor. Br. Peter was in religious life until his Order was discontinued. As a lay man, he wished to enter Guadalupe Vita Dei House but died of COVID before the house opened.
