Time to register for Cana Colony at Madonna House this Summer.

I was thrilled when Deacon Tom Fox mentioned  Madonna House in his 12 Days of Christmas contribution the other Day.  Madonna House is a very special place for our family.  Every other summer we go to Cana Colony, a kind of summer camp/ family retreat for Catholic Families.  At Cana Colony, families stay in simple wooden cabins and cook their meals in a communal cookhouse.  Every day there is Mass, family rosary and one formal retreat session for the parents run by a Madonna House Priest.  For the kids there are many other kids to play with, a lake for swimming, canoes, campfires and great family times.  Cana Colony is in Combermere in Eastern Ontario.  We encourage any Catholic families who live close enough (Ontario, Quebec or the northeastern United States) to try to get to Cana Colony.  It has been an incredible way for us to grow in our faith as a family.

It is important to register early as they only run for 6 weeks in the summertime.  You can find out more information on how to register at http://madonnahouse.org/programs/cana.html.
