“Plant gardens and eat their fruit (Jeremiah 29:5)”

ARGENTINA, Juan Diego Stellatelli • The vegetable garden at Casa del Niño is beginning to bear fruit. The first squashes have already been prepared in our kitchen. — What are the benefits of a vegetable garden for the children? It promotes teamwork, cooperation and camaraderie, patience, perseverance and a sense of responsibility. It promotes an awareness of life. Children realize that a plant needs care, attention, waiting, development, and a process to finally produce a final result (flower, vegetable, fruit). It stimulates the senses as they learn through touch, smell,Read More

About schoenstatt.org

Connecting Schoenstatters

We offer here a selection of articles from schoenstatt.org, in English. Schoenstatt.org as such is available in Spanish, Portuguese, and German.

Our mission is to serve the life of the International Schoenstatt family and the Church by promoting bonds of solidarity - covenant culture - and offering this service as a testimony - culture of encounter.

In all our actions, we daily hear the echoes of the words given to us by Pope Francis during the audience on 25 October 2014, "a culture of encounter is a covenant culture that creates solidarity."

About Schoenstatt

Schoenstatt is an ecclesial Movement, where everyone, each according to his individual vocation and united in covenant, serves the Church and its mission and the world God has entrusted to us.

The core of Schoenstatt's foundation is the covenant of love with Mary, the Mother of God.

This covenant of love generates culture and covenant culture is the unique expression of our way of life and work, our attachment to God, to people, to nature and culture, to the Church and the world, which always departs from the covenant of love.

Schoenstatt's commitment to this covenant culture inspires it to go out from the shrines to the existential peripheries to "sanctuarize" the world, as Pope Francis says.
