How you can help the New Mount Carmel project …
Dear friend,
The 17-acre site at Chilswell is idyllic, a beautiful celebration of God’s creation; we have no intention of changing the way the site is used but we recognise the need to improve the quality of the accommodation and the way the buildings and landscape complement each another. We also need to have the facilities and services to take our mission forward so that we can provide support, guidance and spiritual inspiration in the Carmelite tradition to an ever-increasing number of people.
For more than two years we have been working on appropriate and sensitive changes with our architect, landscape and lighting designers, energy consultant and a range of other specialists in ecology, arboriculture, traffic, and the visual impact on the landscape. We also put on an exhibition and entered into a detailed consultation with our neighbours around Boars Hill to ensure our impact on the landscape and local community was minimal. We have received excellent feedback and support for what we want to achieve.
All of this now brings us to the critical stage of funding the project, which is expected to take around five years to complete. The first phase of this project is expected to cost £10 million. With your support, we know we can achieve our goals. With a gift of any amount, we will be able to redevelop Chilswell House and priory to the glory of God and the Gospel of our Redeemer.
If you would like to know more about the project, and how your donation can be such a huge help, please do contact me and I’ll be very happy to chat with you about the project, and how you can become involved.
Look forward to hearing from you,
GOD BLESS
Fr. Alexander Ezechukwu, Prior of Chilswell Priory
