Our Lady of Clearwater Site - Virgin Mary Building

It's outside. Open air. Come after 7 when it's not too hot and sit down and meditate. Grab a burrito or a taco afterwards - don pancho is right next door. Usually quiet and peaceful.

I’ve visited Our Lady of Clearwater many times over the years, and it has always been a peaceful place to pause, pray, or simply sit in quiet reflection. Recently, though, it appears the site may be closed or unstaffed. When I stopped by, the grounds were empty and the building seemed unattended. I’ve reached out to the ministry that owns the property to ask whether the shrine is still active or if there are plans for restoration or reopening. This place has meant a great deal to many people in our community, and I hope someone can look into its current status. Even in its quieter seasons, the shrine has always carried a sense of calm and history that deserves care. If anyone has updated information, or if the ministry is able to share future plans, I know many locals would appreciate it.

I legit saw her at 6am on the way to work one day. Scared the hell out of me. She was right there! I went back later. I found out I wasn’t the only one.

My husband and I visited this once beautiful site yesterday. Upon arriving we noticed how severely neglected the site is. I’m so sad, this used to be a beautiful, clean site to come say a prayer and feel love in gods presence. I’m beyond sad.

Upon arrival his place looks abandon and is not well kept. Me and my sister and her 7 year old son were going around trying to find a Christian gift shop and ended up here. Despite the overgrown abandon looking building we still proceeded to walk up to a door that was locked. We called the number on the door to try to get in and no one answered. A lady came to the door unwelcoming and asked what we were looking for… the gift shop that is advertised on the door of course. She directed us to the “gift shop” through a strange smelling, hot, dark building with chairs randomly sitting around along with other miscellaneous items that would be in a church. then down a hallway into what was suppose to be a gift shop… It felt unwelcoming and abandoned… honestly not sure why they would even let people into this building. As we made our way down the hallway my sisters son said “this place is scary” several time! and I think he was speaking for us all. All the items we seen looked old almost like old items that may have been in a church before? I dont know. We only lasted 2 mins maybe not even before my sister said “let’s go!” And we booked it. As soon as we left the building we all felt relieved and creeped out… if you’re trying to find a Christian gift shop do NOT come here. We all felt traumatized!!
