Origin and Inspiration for the Great
Work
Continued . . .
The illness passed, the student completed his
studies and after his ordination he came to West Bend as Pastor
in 1898. For over a decade he was stockpiling rocks and precious
stones. The actual work  of
giving permanence to his promise began to take shape in 1912.
The designed purpose of the Grotto is to tell in
silent stone made spiritually eloquent, the story of man's fall
and his redemption by Christ, the savior of the world.
