252 Wantage Avenue, Branchville, NJ

The Sanctuary of Mary, Our Lady of the Holy Spirit is a 

Non-Profit Corporation of the State of New Jersey. 


The original Board of Directors recently donated The Sanctuary and annex property to The Society of the Divine Vocations. 


The Vocationist Fathers accepted the donation with the desire of reopening The Sanctuary located at 252 Wantage Ave, Branchville, New Jersey, to the devotion of the faithful to carry on and fulfill the dream of the late Father Sylvester Livolsi.


This Sanctuary, located on a hill in Frankford Township, is a beautiful oasis of peace and serenity, an ideal place for prayer and meditation.

    The Vocationists, in addition to making The Sanctuary a Center of Marian Devotion, wish to make it a  Retreat Center for Priests, Sisters, Brothers, Parish Groups, Confirmation and First Communion Groups, and Christian Movements. 


    After repairing and upgrading the existing buildings, we hope to build a Retreat House for those who want overnight, weekend or week long visits.


    We plan to bring our religious community to the property. We will be available for Holy Masses, Confessions, Counseling, Bible Courses, Christian Formation, Retreats etc.


    We humbly ask for your prayerful cooperation and your moral support. 


    We ask those of you who have visited The Sanctuary over the years to please share your experiences.


    We would appreciate it so much if you can provide us with written memories of your photos of gatherings etc. 


    Anything you can send to us would enable us to write a more comprehensive history of The Sanctuary. 


    We also need financial help, 

    co-operators, voluntary assistance and most of all, devoted participation. 


    We sincerely urge past friends and benefactors, as well as new ones, to give us a hand to make Fr. Livolsi’s dream a reality and bring it to fulfillment.
