St. Brendan Center for Evangelization and Spirituality

The St. Brendan Center for Evangelization and Spirituality is a 38 acre parcel in the Beulah community of Pensacola which will serve our diocese as a focal point for our local Church's mission to the world. Formerly operated by Ascension Sacred Heart hospital as Miracle Camp, the property was purchased by the diocese in 2023 and renamed after St. Brendan the Navigator of Ireland, the patron of sailors, navigators and the U.S. Navy. Bishop Wack chose this special patronage to honor the Irish priests and religious sisters and brothers who came left their homes to spread the Gospel and minister to God’s people in the United States.

The St. Brendan Center is located at:
9840 Beulah Rd.
Pensacola, FL 32526
