“He went to a secluded place to pray…”

A priest in white robes with gold and red vestments is performing a religious ceremony in front of a large wooden cross with a Jesus figure. The priest is holding a chalice, and the congregation's hand is visible pouring wine into it. Candles and flowers are arranged in front of the altar.

“Father, I desire that where I am, they may also be with Me.”

Seven Hermitages and a chapel are nestled in 65 acres of hardwood forests and field and dedicated to offering priests a place of silence, solitude and prayer with the Lord who has chosen them for Himself. Intended for 5-10 day retreats or longer 30 day retreats, the campus is designed to be an oasis where priests may have the space, privacy and quiet to listen to the Heart of Jesus.

“"It is in solitude that God speaks to us.”

-St. John Vianney
