Help Us Restore Our Shrine and Revitalize Our Community
In the mid-1990s the local priest, Father Pat Valdez, commissioned local artist, the world-renowned sculptor, Huberto Maestas, to create 15 dramatic bronze sculptures making up the Stations of the Cross Shrine. The shrine travels up the side of San Pedro Mesa and at the top is the Shrine Church: the Chapel of All Saints (La Capilla de Todos Los Santos) that gives visitors a spectacular view of the majestic San Luis Valley.
The Shrine includes:
- The Stations of the Way of the Cross
- The Chapel of All Saints
- An Observation Point Building Promontory
- A maintenance building including ADA accessible public restrooms
- Our Lady of Guadalupe Grotto
- A Theatine Saints Remembrance Garden
- Way of the Mexican Martyrs ending in an outdoor altar
- A Meditation Labyrinth
- A Cement Pad that could be used to host outdoor events

Who Will This Campaign Benefit
This GoFundMe campaign and restoration project that it will fund will benefit the community and people of the oldest town in Colorado: San Luis.
The Shrine is owned and maintained by the Sangre de Cristo Parish and Missions so the money donated to this cause will be earmarked for this project and will be overseen by the parish.
