SPAIN, Luis Enrique Zamarro • Leadership in the Federation is embodied in service. If they (we) are an elite corps, it is in the daily struggle for holiness, and for generous dedication to others. — About three months ago I moved to a new place of work. From the car park to the office there is a church that is open (at least) at half past seven in the morning. Since then, I go in every morning and have rediscovered the Lauds prayer that I have always enjoyed so much;Read More

A prospective tenant dropped out 3 weeks before we were to move in. Acquaintances of ours had placed a note under the statue of St. Joseph several times while looking for an apartment.

PARAGUAY, Johanna Chávez • The Family Federation in Paraguay continues to grow with new couples in new dioceses and places. As in all the Federations and Institutes of Schoenstatt, there are two spaces of belonging and growth for each member: the course as a free space and the region as an official space, each with its own identity and complementary mission in a healthy creative tension. Around the Shrine of Tuparenda, there is a growing desire for the constitution of a new Region. — On a rainy night in Tupãrenda,Read More
GERMANY, Renate Siebenkäs • Dear Father Franz Reinisch, with regret I realize today that I have not yet given you anything for your 120th birthday.

So today I give you roses hidden in the Lord’s Prayer! — The Martyr of the Month of February – Franz Reinisch You are looking at me as background from my laptopRead More
SPAIN, Tano Soler Morellá and Belén Pérez Alemany • On Friday, January 20, we sealed our Perpetual Consecration to the Family Federation. Along with us, our course brothers renewed theirs, celebrated four years earlier, in 2019. — It was a precious moment of grace poured out, a simple celebration, full of affection and joy. A real and strong community experience. There was one word that resonated in our hearts throughout the celebration. Father José María pronounced it, and we also said it at some point during that precious night ofRead More
