What's one thing you'd like customers to know?

OUR MISSION Enders Island is home to St. Edmund's Retreat, a Catholic Community whose primary mission is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and in deed, through the hospitality and care we offer visitors, and retreatants who cross our causeway seeking an experience of God’s healing, redeeming and renewing love. The Sacred Art Institute offers spiritual inspiration as it teaches the history and craft of Sacred Art – visual, written, and sung – through its growing community of instructors who are highly skilled in traditional art forms. Sure, below is just one testimonial from an artist who participated in one of our recent events. “Congratulations to you and your team and the wonderful people at kofc - for the success of this unusual exhibit drawing attention to our Eucharistic Lord. I am just amazed and extremely impressed that you all were able to pull this off so beautifully and so professionally. I was deeply moved by the talk given at the opening by Father Chris Alar as well as by the outpouring of devotion and skill evident in the many exceptional artworks. Many people have no idea and simply do not understand how difficult it really is to do what you have done. Many thanks for putting up with my special and for all the work you've done for this landmark exhibit.” JL
