Pacem in Terris

Provides Sacred Space for Silence, Prayer, and Rest with God
Pacem in Terris (Peace on Earth) is a center of spirituality in Minnesota rooted in the Franciscan tradition, offering individuals a quiet place to retreat and be alone with God. Nestled among forest, prairie, and a peaceful wildlife lake, Pacem provides simple hermitage cabins where guests can step away from the noise and pressures of daily life and enter into silence, solitude, and prayer. By creating space for rest, reflection, and spiritual renewal, Pacem invites people from across Minnesota and beyond to encounter God in the stillness of a “desert-like” environment and return to their lives renewed in faith and peace.
