DO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

 Hermits living in the countryside of Lake Elmo, MN who are trying to build a chapel in the style of the ancient Roman churches of Sant' Apollinare and Saint Mary Major, and are piecing their own mosaics together themselves while fueled with Little Flower Farm goat cheese?

Carmelite Hermits of the Blessed Virgin Mary

BRING IT ON!

If you have money. Give it to these fellows so that more brothers can join them soon. The world needs peace and prayer...and a gorgeous chapel in the middle of the woods open to the
public.

DONATE HERE.
