As we await the anticipated June Isanti County Planning Commission meeting (date has not yet been set), we continue to gather signatures. Thank you for your support of Pacem in Terris Hermitage Retreat Center and its mission of providing silence, peace, tranquility, and solitude for our guests.

Individuals continue to sign the petition. As of this morning, we are just four signatures away from 1,900, and only 100 away from a total of 2,000 signatures. It would be wonderful to bring 2,000 signatures to the June public hearing.

We continue to receive wonderful letters of support. Here are two of the most recent:

"The time I spent at Pacem was sacred to me. The peaceful quietness and the presence of God on that Holy property allowed me to experience Him in a much more intimate and personal way. It is one of my most beautiful and precious memories that has strengthened my faith and changed my life in many ways. In today’s world, it is so rare to have the opportunity to experience a place that is devoted just for Him and our time to seek and experience Him in nature in its purest form. Pacem is not only special, it is blessed and a place set aside for Him… Please protect this beautiful, Holy place…" - Cheryl

"Please don't bring this to our quiet neighborhood. I grew up here and the traffic is already enough between 47 and 10 passing though. The added traffic would be unbearable." - Teri

Thank you for your support. Please continue to share the petition with others so that we can reach our goal of 2,000.
