Welcome to St Joan of Arc Powell OH Wilderness Outreach Program. It is the hopes of St Joan of Arc that this program help engage parishioners and friends of St Joan of Arc Catholic Church into a program that fosters a stronger community. The physical location of this area extends to the west end of the St Joan of Arc Catholic Church Campus, which is one mile south of Powell, OH on Liberty Road. Background: Father Larussa and Steve Helmrich while walking through the area for the first time, shortly after the church purchased the "Land North Property", both shared very similar visions. They both immediately agreed on a vision of a worship / meditation area where parishioners and visitors would feel comfortable to visit for solitude while appreciating some of the natural gifts HE has given us. The vision at that time was to develop a worship area ideal for mass and a worship walkway which would include the Stations of the Cross.
Most all of the clearing, construction and building is done with volunteers and most of the plants are gifts given to us from parishioners wanting to share some of their own back yard plants. The gifts from the St Joan of Arc community has been overwhelming. Your efforts are making it possible to open up this beautiful area as St Joan of Arc’s Worship/Meditation Area. Everyone's gifts of Time, Talent and Treasures are most appreciated. May the Holy Spirit bless you in a special way for your generosity.
