WELCOME
You have entered ‘Holy Ground’
where your soul may open wide to the wonder of the Creator’s love and grace in your life.
The Triune God speaks softly in pinewhisper and birdsong; in the rustle of chipmunk scamper and the knowledge of squirrel chatter.
Kneel in the Grotto with Bernadette or follow the Way of the Cross with the Saviour.
|
|
 |
|
|
|
There is strength in the quiet.
Sit on the stone bench and be calmed by Nancy’s Fountain as your finger ‘walks’ the Labyrinth.
Spend time on the meditation deck, feet on the ground, soul in the treetops.
