For over two centuries, Notre Dame de l’ Hermitage has stood as a beacon of faith, mission, and Marist heritage. More than just a building, it is the heart of the Marist story - the place where Marcellin Champagnat laid the foundation for what would become a global mission.
The walls of the Hermitage have housed generations of Brothers, stood as silent witnesses to the struggles and triumphs of the world around them, and remain a sacred space infused with the spirit of those early pioneers - men who gave up everything to carry forward Marcellin’s burning mission, to make Jesus Christ known and loved, especially among those on the margins.
