Mary’s Grotto Donor List – Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM)

Come to Mary’s Grotto. She is Waiting for You

A stunning white statute of Our Lady stands majestically amid the hand-laid stone grotto structure … a refreshing mist spritzes from the bubbling fountain … towering oaks and maples are about to burst into a canopy of vibrant colors … and in the moonlight, a lit stone path invites you to meander throughout this peaceful setting under the stars. May you feel the presence of Our Lady. Come to Mary’s Grotto. She is waiting for you.

Thank you to all donors who have supported this special project. The Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary lift you up in their daily prayers and hope you will visit Mary’s Grotto often to enjoy this sacred space that you helped to build. Below is a list of current donors with new ones added daily.
