Help Support Our Mission

We appreciate your prayers and your prayerful participation. We welcome your time, talent and treasure, in any capacity, to help us continue to move forward to make St. John’s Hermitage a reality. If you are handy and like working outdoors, moving wood and stones, clearing land, operating construction equipment, getting dirty and having fun working toward a goal together, we’d love to have your assistance. Organizations are more than welcome to assist us. If you have other skills and gifts, such as: parish communication, public relations, fundraising, nonprofit planning, construction, landscaping experience or business ownership, we value your experience and input.
