Catholics without a Church in conjunction with the White Robed Monks of St. Benedict do not, on principle, maintain a charge or fee schedule for our services. Our services are intangible, of a purely spiritual or religious nature. We do, however, gratefully accept free will donations.

Unlike most monastic orders, our clerics do not receive any financial support or recompense from the White Robed Monks of St. Benedict. Like St. Paul, our priests and deacons are “tent makers”. That is, like St. Paul, we support ourselves and our families through various types of employment. We freely give our time, effort and skills to further our mission of making the world a more compassionate place.

Regarding donations, we are aware that many priests/ministers do maintain a fee schedule or require a contract and/or deposit. We, on principle, do NOT.

All of that being said, we ask that you consider the following factors should you decide to offer a donation:

1: the officiant normally spends at least 10 hours per wedding;

2: the officiant is a highly trained and skilled person, not a “mail order minister/rabbi”;

3: some couples are not able to make any kind of donation;

4: a significant portion of any donation goes toward our charitable work in India, such as the Women's Village Project;

5: administrative costs (web page, postage, telephone, travel expenses, vestments, documents, etc);

With that in mind, after consulting with many couples whom we have served, we offer the following guidelines for a donation:

Houston, Texas: $300.00

Galveston Island, Texas $350.00

San Antonio, Texas $400.00

Austin, Texas $400.00 

The Dallas Metroplex $400.00
