Probably the most significant thing we have learned from the various kinds of hospitality offered here in our 80 acres of wilderness/farm is the healing power of the land. In 1991 when a Franciscan priest friend brought up people with AIDS to enjoy the country air, an idea was born: Why not turn the unfinished Dondlinger/Whatford house into a respite/retreat space for people with AIDS or other terminal illnesses, and those involved in their care.
The house (Catherine's House) was finished in 2001. It is 1,975 square feet, handicapped accessible and accommodates small groups for overnight stays and larger groups for day meetings. This respite/retreat space is open to all regardless of their spirituality.
Today, we are excited to say that this vision has become a reality. We invite you to help us in our continuing effort to provide these services. |
