PARAGUAY, II Congress of the Latin American Centre for the Protection of Minors, press release • “I am among you, because the first step of this penitential pilgrimage is to renew my plea for forgiveness and to tell you from the bottom of my heart that I am deeply hurt. I feel called to take responsibility for all the evil that some priests, many of them, have done. Because of the sexual abuse of children, and in the face of this outrageous evil, the Church kneels before God and begsRead More
PORTUGAL, Lena Castro Valente • At the beginning of 2022, an article of mine appeared on schoenstatt.org about the establishment of an Independent Commission commissioned by the Portuguese Episcopal Conference to investigate the abuse of children by priests, pastoral workers, scouts and others “in the life and work of the Church in Portugal over the last 50 years.” A year has passed and, as promised, the Independent Commission has submitted its report to the Portuguese Episcopal Conference (CEP). — On February 13 of this year, in a press conference, theRead More
GERMANY, Editorial Team schoenstatt.org / Press release of the diocese of Fulda • Where tensions and pressures are clearly experienced in the Church, the seriousness of synodality becomes evident, emphasizes Fulda’s Bishop Dr. Michael Gerber. He sees the fifth and last synodal assembly of the Catholic Church in Germany as a test of a synodal church. In a statement, Bishop Gerber formulates his expectations for the assembly, which will convene in Frankfurt from Thursday to Saturday. — “Synodality lives from listening, from taking my counterpart seriously and from trying toRead More
ABUSE IN THE CHURCH, Roberto M. González • At the beginning of March, Pope Francis presents us with a new video with this month’s prayer intention; he calls on the universal Church and each individual Christian to pray for victims of abuse. — What specifically is the Pope asking of us? He asks us not to be silent when abuse happens, in whatever form. Let us remember that there is not only sexual abuse, but also abuse of conscience, which is the beginning and symptom of other forms of abuse.Read More
PORTUGAL, Lena Castro Valente • March 13th is the 10th anniversary of Francis’ Pontificate. I remember exactly where I was, with whom I was… in the very long minutes before the arrival of the new Pope at the Loggia of St. Peter’s Basilica. Who would it be? Who had been elected? I had a Mass scheduled in my Parish for 7 in the afternoon of that March 13 in memory of my dear mother. And, the new Pope didn’t show up… time went by, and soon I realized that IRead More
SYNOD ON SYNODALITY • Shortly after Christmas, a German priest, Father Faulhaber, told me a precious detail about the Episcopal House of Bishop Michael Gerber, Bishop of Fulda, a member of the Schoenstatt Institute of Diocesan Priests. At Bishop Gerber’s request, and with his participation, the manger in the house was placed under a huge tent that was “widened” from one wall to the other, leaving only a narrow path to go from one office to the other. “‘Enlarge the space of your tent,'” the title chosen for the workingRead More
WORLD DAY OF SOCIAL COMMUNICATIONS 2023, mf • “Communicating in a cordial manner means that those who read or listen to us are led to welcome our participation in the joys, fears, hopes and suffering of the women and men of our time. “, one of the key phrases in Pope Francis’ message for World Communications Day 2023. In the workshops on “Communication according to the MTA model” of Fr. Joseph Kentenich we usually say that what we relate has to pass through our own heart. To let ourselves beRead More
FRANCIS ON THE APOSTOLATE • On January 25, Pope Francis delivered his third Catechesis on the very Schoenstatt theme: “Passion for evangelization: the apostolic zeal of the believer” and presented Jesus as “master of proclamation”. For this, he reflected concretely on “the first proclamation of Jesus” when he preached in the synagogue of his town, Nazareth, and read a passage from the prophet Isaiah. Pope Francis identified the five elements that he considers essential: joy, liberation, light, healing and the ability to marvel at the works that God does. —Read More
FRANCIS ON APOSTOLATE • “In order to summarize in one word the action of the Church, the term “pastoral” is often used. And to evaluate our pastoral, we must compare ourselves with the model, with Jesus, Jesus the Good Shepherd,” said Pope Francis in his second catechesis on the apostolate. “He is the Good Shepherd who is not content with caring for the sheep who are in the flock, but who, without measuring the sacrifices, goes in search of those who are far away and lost. We too are calledRead More
CHILE, Rafael Mascayano M. • Since last year, the idea of holding “summer courses in the perspective of the social dimension of the Covenant of Love”, an initiative of Fr. Juan Pablo Rovegno, from the National Direction of Schoenstatt Chile, has been around, transforming itself in the course of time into conferences called “Social Camps”. — However, for this year and at a time when it is summer vacation for us, we were able to carry out a course on Fratelli tutti, taking as a central line the “how thisRead More
