Hermitages

Come to a Place of Beauty, Peace, and Prayer

IHM Hermitages

As part of our IHM hospitality, we invite you to come apart and rest awhile and to grow in friendship and union with God. Our hermitages are available for anyone desiring a place for solitude and deep prayer.

We offer the use of our hermitages, situated in an area of beauty, quiet and safety. Named for the founder of our community, we provide the Theresa Maxis Hermitages on the grounds of the IHM Center in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
