We have embarked on a vision to preserve the serenity of these holy grounds and to grow it as a place of prayer and consolation through restoration and growth. We invite you to become a special part of this endeavor!
How You Can Help
Prayer
Our motivations and vision must be grounded in prayer so we progress with a constant awareness of God’s will for the National Shrine Grotto. In prayer, we seek God’s voice and allow God’s word to penetrate our fear and resistance so that we can hear what God wants us to know.
Please join us in prayer for the growth and restoration of the National Shrine Grotto so these holy grounds may be able to beat in unison with the hearts of Jesus and Mary, that wants to give life to their children.
