Consider a Gift to Support Montreat's Continuing Operations While much has changed in our world over the last few months, what hasn’t changed is the generosity and partnership of those who love Montreat. As countless programs have been made virtual and hospitality revenues have diminished, we are still able to provide opportunities to encounter God thanks to gifts to the Montreat Fund. In our time of need, these provide vital support for wilderness, recreation, facilities, and other ministries. Thank you to all who continue to support Montreat - with time, money, prayers and more - during this time.
