Walking Pilgrimage to the Shrine of the Sorrowful Mother in St. Agatha September 15, 2013


10th Annual Pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of the Cape in Quebec Aug. 31 - Sept. 2

What: A 100km walking pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of the Cape (Sanctuaire Notre-Dame-du-Cap) in Cap-de-la-Madeleine, Quebec. Mass in the Extraordinary Form is offered daily, and food and places to sleep are provided along the way. It is organized by a group from St. Clement Parish in Ottawa.
Who: A collection of awesome people dedicated to Christ, Our Lady, and the Extraordinary Form mainly from Ontario and Quebec, although by no means limited to these areas.
When: August 31 to September 2, 2013
Where: Route runs through the beautiful countryside of Quebec along the St. Lawrence river in the vicinity of Montreal. Many people from various places attend this pilgrimage, and carpooling there is probably arrangeable. 
Why: As a means of growing closer to Christ, His Blessed Mother, and personal sanctification.

I attended this pilgrimage last year for the first time, and found it to be one of the best experiences I had that year - I would highly recommend attending!

Announcement


Hi Everyone,

I guess you all are probably wondering what has been going on with Juventutem KW lately...

I apologize for not having been forthcoming in the communications department regarding the group. As some of you may know, we still have not grown beyond the original members who signed up for the group, which has significantly discouraged efforts to set up events. But, as there are some changes going on within the community recently, I will try my best to get the group back on its feet.

Until we increase our numbers, I will be blogging continually about ways to grow in your faith in and around the KW area. This includes Mass times, Adoration, Talks, and more! I am always open to new suggestions, so please feel free to send me a message. Hopefully soon we will be able to hold our own events, but until then, please join in with what the region has to offer.

Most importantly, though, I ask that you pray for the success of Juventutem KW. Our mission is to bring Youth and Young Adults to Christ through the traditions of the Church, but unless we work with Christ and have His blessing, our efforts will be fruitless.

So stay tuned and may God bless!

In Christ,
Josh MacMillan

Our Lady Help of Christians, Ora Pro Nobis!
