Located on 40 acres next to Storm King Mountain and near the Hudson River, the Grail is an inspiring setting to gather for reflection and strategizing. Throughout the year members of RMM’s programs and others gather for retreats at the Grail. It is a critical venue for building powerful state-wide networks. In addition, to RMM’s people gathering, we are pleased to make our space available to sister groups.

Programs
RMM brings together faith leaders, both ordained and lay people, to explore the removal of walls that divide us as we work toward social transformation. The Cohorts, both in person and virtual, depend upon the participants sharing their experiences with one another.
RMM is partnering with Trabajadores Agricolas Unidos (TAU), an effort sponsored by UFCW and RWDSU to implement the Farm Laborers Fair Labor Practices Act.
Each year, we welcome artists in residence, as we are intent on incorporating the arts into all of our programs and our centers.
RMM is honored to host the annual Rural Women’s Assembly, which welcomes more than 200 rural women and their allies from across New York.
RMM offers regular opportunities for ally groups to visit our Centers, meet with our people and explore our programs.
RMM works hard to support the dreams and opportunities of the members of the Youth Empowerment Program through two scholarship programs.
The Youth Arts Group (YAG) is a program for young people in the Hudson Valley that uses the arts to bring about change.
For more than 30 years, RMM has welcomed children, ages 8-17, from across rural New York to a one-week overnight camp. Along with our Summer Day Programs, young leaders get to meet RMM, and we get to meet them.
