Join us for a weekend of slowing down, reconnecting, and enjoying the simple pleasure of living in community with other families.
Step away from the pace of daily life and spend intentional time together as a family. To fully support your rest, all nourishing meals are prepared and served by Jericho House, offering parents a rare, welcome break from cooking and kitchen routines.
The Experience:
The weekend will balance quiet reflection with meaningful connection, featuring a variety of activities for all ages:
Nature exploration with forest trails, labyrinth walk and quarry swimming.
Creative crafts outdoor play and a scavenger hunt.
Mindfulness & meditation tailored for families.
Yoga, qigong & dance sessions to explore moving the body.
Men’s & women’s circles for supportive adult connection.
Campfire gatherings with storytelling and sing-alongs.
Stargazing evening using the on-site telescope.
Whether you are walking through the woods, looking up at the stars, or simply enjoying an unhurried rhythm of life, this weekend is an opportunity to reconnect—with yourself, your family, and a wider circle of community.
The Setting:
The retreat is hosted at Jericho House located at 10845 Rathfon Rd, Port Colborne, ON L3K 5V4.
Set on 17 acres of Carolinian forest backing onto conservation land, the property includes swimming at a nearby quarry (a three-minute walk), nature trails, a labyrinth, a campfire space, and Lake Erie about 1 km away—an ideal place to settle in.
Each family will have a private room (sleeping up to five) with its own ensuite bathroom. The accommodations are modern and comfortable
