A Sacred Trust of Care, Service, and Responsibility
Lajoie Sanctuaries exists as a living sanctuary devoted to healing, restoration, and alignment with divine order. Our stewardship is rooted in reverence for life, respect for the natural world, and service to one another under God as the sole and supreme source of creation.
We are not an institution of control, nor a system of doctrine. We are a place of gathering, grounding, and renewal. Our work is guided by conscience, responsibility, and care for the whole of life.
Our Understanding of Stewardship
Stewardship, as we hold it, is the responsibility entrusted to all people to care for what has been given—body, land, spirit, knowledge, and community.
We believe:
- The Earth is not owned, but entrusted
- Life is not a commodity, but a sacred expression
- Knowledge is to be shared, not hoarded
- Power exists to serve, not dominate
All activities of Lajoie Sanctuaries are undertaken in this spirit of stewardship, accountability, and reverence.
Our Beliefs
God & Creation
We affirm God as the one and only source of life, order, and creation.
We do not recognize intermediaries, idols, or false authorities over conscience.
Each person is endowed with inherent dignity, free will, and responsibility.
The Living Spirit
We recognize the spirit as the animating force within all living beings.
Healing arises when body, mind, and spirit are brought into balance and truth.
Earth & Nature
The natural world is sacred.
Animals, land, water, and sky are living systems deserving care, protection, and respect.
Time spent in nature restores what modern life often fractures.
Knowledge & Consciousness
We honor inquiry, wisdom, mathematics, natural law, and the exploration of consciousness as expressions of divine intelligence.
Truth is approached through humility, curiosity, and responsibility.
Community & Service
We believe community is formed through service, cooperation, and shared responsibility.
Care for others—especially the vulnerable—is an expression of spiritual maturity, not obligation.

“Where healing is remembered, belonging is restored, and life is honored.”
The Nature of Being & Divine Connection
Our work is guided by conscience, responsibility, and care for the whole of life—recognizing that life extends beyond the physical form.
We hold that the human body is a sacred vessel, an earthly expression through which an eternal being experiences creation. The essence of who we are—our spirit, our energy, our soul—is not bound by time, form, or limitation. It is continuous, enduring, and sustained through an inherent and unbroken connection to God.
Each person carries within them a unique lineage of spirit and purpose. No two journeys are the same. No single path defines another. What unites all beings is not uniformity, but origin—our shared source in divine creation.
We believe this inner connection to God is the wellspring of conscience, intuition, and creative force. It cannot be manufactured, transferred, or destroyed. It exists beyond external authority and beyond the constraints of imposed timelines. In this sense, life is not a race toward an end, but an unfolding of purpose within the present moment.
As beings of energy and awareness, we understand ourselves as interconnected—each life influencing another, each action seen and felt within the whole. In this way, healing, compassion, and service are not obligations, but natural expressions of alignment.
Lajoie Sanctuaries exists to honor this truth:
that we are here to guide, support, and uplift one another, regardless of destination, knowing that each life unfolds under divine order and intention.
“We are many expressions, one source; many paths, one origin; many lives, one living creation.“
