Three posters with the title "In Covenant with…" are already witnesses ofRead More

HUNGARY, Sr. Gertrud-Maria Erhard. "Tired and restless, we were sitting together as a couple in our Home-Shrine with the visit of the Father Eye Symbol," relates Istvan Endredy, a member of the diocesan council of the Schoenstatt Movement in Budapest. "After our couples' group meeting, we felt 'renewed.' Unusually, the next day I did not have to work and it made it possible for us to have anew, after a long time, a good married dialog. Perhaps we owe it to the visit of the Father EyeRead More
mkf. "The Mass for Chile was very pretty, I followed it on the Internet at dawn. The snow that was falling outside was impressive!" wrote Cassio Leal, who was connected to the Original Shrine from São Paulo, Brazil at three o'clock in the morning; and it truly was impressive.

mkf. "How many more Masses like these will we celebrate until October 18, 2014?" The celebrant's question awakened an instantaneous speedy mental calculation among those present. "Good Friday Mass is not celebrated…" Father Egon Zillekens added smiling…beginning now until 2014 we will celebrate at least two hundred Masses…then this awakened a collective sigh…we will celebrate these Masses on Saturday mornings in the Original Shrine until 2014, praying for the Schoenstatt Family's preparation for the large pilgrimage to the Original Shrine on October 18, 2014.
