Dear Friend of the Christian Meditation Center,

The Christian Meditation Center has been blessed to serve our community for many years as a place of prayer, reflection, and spiritual renewal. Our mission is simple and pure: to guide people into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ through the practice of Christian meditation. We run solely on the generosity of donors and the dedication of volunteers, no one receives a salary, and every dollar given goes directly toward ministry and mission.

At this time, we face a significant but necessary expense. To complete our application with the Pinelands Commission and move forward with the future vision of our Center, we must secure professional land surveying services. This work includes:

  • A Property Survey to establish accurate boundaries
  • A Topographical Survey to map elevations, utilities, and features of the land
  • A Minor Subdivision Plan to comply with township and Pinelands requirements

The total cost of this essential project is $17,000.

While this is a large financial step for us, it is also a vital one—we cannot move forward without it.

In addition, we continue to depend on donations to sustain our ongoing ministry expenses: events, retreats, study groups, training in Christian meditation, and resources for those seeking God’s peace and presence in their lives.

We humbly ask you to prayerfully consider supporting this need with a gift. Your donation will help us secure the land survey required for our Pinelands application while also sustaining the ministry of the Christian Meditation Center.

Every contribution—large or small—brings us closer to fulfilling our mission. Together, we are advancing the Kingdom of God, offering hope, peace, and spiritual transformation in a world that desperately needs it.

If you feel led to give, donations can be made by check payable to the Christian Meditation Center or through our website featuring pictures of the chapel and retreat center.

Thank you for your continued prayers, encouragement, and generosity. With your support, we can take this next faithful step in God’s plan for the Christian Meditation Center.

With gratitude and hope,

Teresa Yerkes,
Founder and President
