“We have a work to do... It begins at home.”
For over five decades, Madonna House has been the host to a summer retreat vacation for families called Cana Colony. Located in a very rustic and simple environment on a lake in rural Ontario, the program features daily mass, lectures, outdoor activities, common cooking facilities and precious family time.
For many years, a highlight of the week was the talk given by Catherine Doherty—we present here some inspiring and motivating selections.
You’ll find discussions on:
- Nazareth and family life.
- The family and the Eucharist.
- Walking through trials in the light of the Gospel.
- Mary’s fiat and the family.
About the Author
Catherine Doherty used her heritage as a Russian Christian as a matrix for responding to the needs of Christian life and work in the modern world. Her own personal pilgrimage led her to be “poor with the poor Christ” in the slums of Toronto and in Harlem; and later to the establishing of the world-wide Madonna House Apostolate. A dedicated wife and mother, Catherine was also a prolific writer of hundreds of articles, a best-selling author of dozens of books, a renowned national speaker, and a pioneer of social justice. Catherine Doherty's cause for canonization as a saint is now under consideration by the Catholic Church.
