Remarks:
The Grotto is staffed by the Order of the Servants of Mary. It was founded in 1924 by Servite Friar Ambrose Mayer, who envisioned a place of retreat for experiencing the presence of God in nature. The sculptures were added later at various times. John Fitzgerald Kennedy (1917-1963) was the first Catholic President. IAS files include a pamphlet and brochure drafts from the Grotto.
