MARIST BROTHERS CENTER AT ESOPUS
St. Marcellin Champagnat, founder of the Marist Brothers, felt a personal call to establish a community that would bring the message of love for all. His vision lives on through the Marist Brothers Center at Esopus – Mid-Hudson Valley Camp, where all walks of life are welcome to the Center’s retreat and camp programs that embody the Marist values of welcome and acceptance, joyful service to others, community, simplicity and humility.
As a registered 501(c)(3) located in Esopus, NY, tucked within over 160 acres of aesthetic beauty on the Hudson River, the Center works to positively foster spirituality and community, and promote volunteerism and support of others. Each year, more than 5,000 individuals walk through the MBCE gates for self-exploratory retreats, memorable camps, and fulfilling service-work
