History of Villa Madonna Retreat House, Little Bras d'Or, NS


Villa Madonna Renewal Centre is owned by the Diocese of Antigonish and operated by the Diocese through the Diocesan Pastoral Centre. For the past twenty-two years there has been a steady demand for the facilities at Villa Madonna and we have had as high as 2000 people a year use the building.
There is a range of programs available for those who are seeking to deepen their relationship with God and to better understand their faith. Programs such as those listed here are aids to living a more Christ-like life.
Villa Madonna Renewal Centre is also available to parishes and other church organizations for their own programming. The facilities are available for weekend or mid-week programming. Villa Madonna seeks to provide a warm cozy environment which enables participants to relax and benefit from their respective programs.
  • For more information on any of the programs listed here contact either Villa Madonna Retreat House at 736-3602 or by faxing 1-902-736-0204.
