Support Needed for the Cause for Beatification and Canonization of Servant of God, Fr. Patrick Ryan

Now that Fr. Patrick Ryan’s remains are entombed at the Basilica of Sts. Peter and Paul, a minimum of $25,000 is needed to bring his cause to Rome. The Cause cannot move forward, and will remain at a standstill, until this expense has been met. This amount is in addition to the expenses that have already been incurred during the exhumation and entombment including the cost of the tomb itself. Please consider donating to help the advancement of the Cause. All donations are greatly appreciated!

How to donate to the Cause:

• Send contributions to the Basilica parish office. 

• Donations via the Basilica's Online Giving: Scroll down to find the collection for Cause for Fr. Patrick Ryan.

• Mass offertory collection donations need to be designated for Cause for Fr. Patrick Ryan. 

• Put donations in the collection box marked Cause for Fr. Patrick Ryan in the Basilica’s vestibule.

• Credit card donations: Call the Basilica parish office at 423-266-1618.

Make checks payable to the Basilica of Sts. Peter and Paul with Cause for Fr. Patrick Ryan written on the memo line or put cash in an envelope that is labeled Cause for Fr. Patrick Ryan.
