Special giving opportunity--The Allston Abbey Campaign: To honor Bishop Gates, the Allston Abbey Campaign is raising funds to support the Abbey’s collaboration with the Anglican Episcopal Community of Learning at Boston University School of Theology. The Allston Abbey has created space for offices, trainings, worship and gatherings of the Community of Learning. This campaign seeks to raise funds to complete residential facilities for the students. Envisioned are four dormitory spaces, plus a kitchen, bathrooms and common space in the lower level of the parish hall. This project is important to Bishop Gates and, in his honor as he prepares to retire, we look forward to raising the funds to complete it!
