A Blackbaud Case Study
The Congregation of Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration is a semi‑cloistered monastic community with monasteries in Clyde, Missouri; Tucson, Arizona; and Dayton, Wyoming, that supports its ministry through prayer and spiritual hospitality. Facing fragmented donor tracking in spreadsheets, frequent travel between houses, and more than 1,000 monthly prayer requests, the sisters needed a centralized, online system accessible from anywhere to consolidate supporter data and streamline prayer management.
They adopted Blackbaud’s eTapestry SaaS with modules for mass email, executive reporting, and eCommerce to take prayer requests online and link each record to a single database. As a result, the sisters now maintain consistent supporter information, produce reports that demonstrate impact, segment and target communications more effectively, and onboard new staff quickly thanks to the system’s ease of use.
