Letting the Mountain Speak
In a world full of noise, you can give the gift of rest.
In a time of darkness, you can be the light.
A Sanctuary for the Weary
Every gift to St. Mary’s Sewanee helps weary people come away from the weight of the world and find what they’ve forgotten—their own belovedness.
Your generosity provides:
Scholarships for caregivers, clergy, and activists
Peaceful space for rest, renewal and reconnection
Beautiful sacred grounds for personal and communal transformation
At a time when the world feels divided and heavy, St. Mary’s Sewanee is a place where spiritual transformation is not only possible—it's happening. Every guest who walks our trails, rests in our hermitages, or joins in silent prayer carries something back to their families, their work, and their world.
But we cannot offer this gift without you.
Your gift to St. Mary’s Sewanee makes it possible for burdened and weary souls to find rest, renewal, and reconnection.
“When I arrived, I felt heavy and burdened. After days at St. Mary’s Sewanee, I left carrying light again.”
