Our Mission
To provide meaningful, transparent financial support to marginalized priests, enabling them to continue their ministry and service while maintaining their dignity and independence.
The Restoring Christian Culture Initiative (RCCI) is proud to announce the establishment of the Cancelled Priest Fund, building on our organization's proven track record of supporting priests who have faced unjust cancellation. For the past two years, RCCI has directly housed, employed, and compensated priests through our Sanctus Ranch facility and Lumen Christi Academy, giving us firsthand insight into the real needs of these faithful servants.
While other organizations claim to support cancelled priests, we've seen how critical resources can be misallocated away from those who need them most. The RCCI Cancelled Priest Fund was created to ensure that donations go directly to priest support—providing housing, employment opportunities, legal assistance, and pastoral care. Our transparent, hands-on approach means every dollar donated makes a meaningful difference in the lives of priests who have courageously stood for truth.
Through our established infrastructure and deep relationships within the Catholic community, RCCI is uniquely positioned to provide comprehensive support that addresses both the immediate and long-term needs of cancelled priests. We don't just offer financial assistance—we offer hope, community, and a path forward.
"So you also, when you shall have done all these things that are commanded you, say: We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which we ought to do." -Luke 17:10

The 90% Commitment
● Minimum 90% of all donations will go directly to priest support and priest vetting. (including Priest Admin Salaries)
● Administrative costs minimized through RCCI's existing infrastructure
● Administrative roles filled by cancelled priests themselves, creating a virtuous cycle
● Regular quarterly financial reports published online
This level of efficiency is possible because the fund operates as a program within the existing Restoring Christian Culture Initiative framework. We already employ the administrative staff needed to facilitate this fund's operations, meaning we don't need to build a costly new infrastructure from scratch. Furthermore, key positions will be staffed by cancelled priests themselves, thereby providing meaningful employment to the very men we aim to support.

The RCCI Cancelled Priest Fund represents a new standard in transparency, efficiency, and genuine commitment to supporting faithful priests who have been marginalized for upholding traditional Catholic teachings.
Together, we can ensure these "unprofitable servants" of Christ continue their vital ministry with dignity and security.
