Their journey began with a mission rooted in the Franciscan principles of contemplation, hospitality, compassion, simplicity, transformation, and care for the Earth Community. Over the years, they have developed into a thriving and inclusive haven for seekers from all walks of life, transcending the boundaries of nationality, culture, and creed.

As visitors enter through the doors, they are greeted by a powerful proclamation: “We are one!” This statement embodies their commitment to unity, diversity, and the timeless pursuit of inner peace and renewal.
