Saint Mother Theodore Guerin arrived here in October 1840. She and three other sister traveled her from France at the request of Bishop Brute, the bishop of Vincenned, IN. That was the beginning of a missionary journey that continues today.
It's a wonderful place to reflect on the beauty of creation in so many ways. There is a walk on The Avenue, walking on the campus of Staint Mary-of-the-Woods College campus, and then there are the places along the way for prayer.
I graduated form the college in 1994 and I take a great deal of pleasure returning home to The Woods. If for any reason you will be traveling to Indiana add Saint Mary-of-the-Woods to your itinerary.

ReplyDeleteCathy - what a lovely place to go to school! I especially like the picture of the walkway among the trees - I imagine that is the "Avenue"? Our future son-in-law is from Indiana, so I will add this to our list of places to visit! Thanks for your visit to my blog!
