The MVWC Garden Group visited Canaan in the Desert on February 13th. The Canaan of the Desert was established in 1968 as the U.S. branch of the Sisterhood of Mary from Germany. The Sisterhood emerged from the ruins of WWII in Frankfurt, Germany. Located in this amazing garden is a Prayer Garden depicting the Stations of the Cross, a Chapel, a Fountain of Goodness, beautiful flowers, plants, agricultural crops, a library, and picturesque views of the beautiful Arizona desert. People, young and old, of all ages from all over the world, routinely visit the Canaan in the Desert.
Upon the end of our tranquil and peaceful walk through the desert, we went to OHSO’s for a scrumptious lunch. It was a wonderful day!
