Sanctuary Grounds
Sanctuary is located on 28 acres of rolling hillsides and farmland with many special places in which to delight in nature including our meditation garden, outdoor chapel, labyrinth, screened gazebo, campfire ring, picnic area and woods.
The monks who lived here in the early days were horticulturists, and the plantings are varied and rich. There are fruit trees and an organic vegetable garden, as well as perennial and herb beds.
The sunsets here at Sanctuary are simply gorgeous.... red, orange and pink streak the western sky over gently rolling farmland. The moon and stars are vivid on cloudless nights. Resting in the countryside, you tune in to the rhythms of the earth and the cycles of nature.
