Where is the Shrine located?
¿Dónde se encuentra el santuario?
El santuario y el jardín de oración están ubicados en Fruita, Colorado, en la Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón: 1210 17 1/2 Rd, Fruita, CO 81521. Es un lugar de peregrinación para toda la Diócesis de Pueblo y, con esperanza, para muchos más allá.
Inspirado en la filosofía de Santa Teresita del Niño Jesús, patrona de nuestra diócesis, el propósito de este santuario es ser ese pequeño acto que da frutos inmensos.
Invocamos a Nuestra Señora para que fortalezca nuestra fe y nos muestre el camino hacia su Hijo por medio de la adoración, la oración y la formación.
Inspired by the spirituality of our diocesan patron, Thérèse of Lisieux, the Shrine seeks to embody her “little way” a small act of love offered to God that bears abundant spiritual fruit.
We entrust this holy place to Our Lady, asking her to deepen our faith and gently lead us to her Son through worship, prayer, and formation.
