Catholic Ecovillage

Catholic Ecovillage is to be a collage of ideas forming one community. Our vision is to bring us closer to God and our vocations, as they come forth in our individual lives. We hope to achieve these ideas through three main ideas.
First and foremost, is to give glory to God, through daily prayer and continual studies of the scripture. Our hope is to do this individually as well as a community. We believe prayer and studies will draw us closer as a community.
Second, that we as a community spread our message of love. It is important that everyone make an effort to do community work inside an outside the immediate village. Our vision is to place Catholic Ecovillage within an area of people less fortunate. An idea that comes to mind is in a rural area of Eastern Kentucky other Appalachian region. Eastern Kentucky or Southern parts of Ohio are areas of interest. Mission work could range from a number of ideas. We envision becoming a support for other programs within these areas. General Education(tutoring programs), Home Rehab, and Ecological or Conservation Awareness are several ideas that come to mind. The beauty is that mission work can be anything. Many wonderful ideas of assisting others have been brought forth. Really anything that spreads the love of Christ through action is a possibility.
Catholic Ecovillage's third idea and initial goal is to create a community. Our eventual hope is to create a village that is environmentally and conservation-minded. We hope to create a sustainable, renewable permaculture within the space we call home. Our goal are to find and use alternative energy, alternative building techniques, along with gardening and livestock care. Our goal is to also create a school building and place of worship within the village. We would also like to stay in close proximity to a town, and college or university. Higher Education certainly will be important.
Our hope is to eventually have little shops, stores & B&B. A retreat center is another distinct possibility. These could assist with spreading our missions and ideas.

Part of the teaching of Catholicism is to strive to be more Christ like. What better way to do this than to surround yourself with others trying to do the same?
