ARGENTINA, Lilita and Carlos Ricciardi/mda. It was 2001; Carlos and Litlita Ricciardo traveled from Argentina to Schoenstatt, Germany, with the dream of going on pilgrimage to the Original Shrine and sharing their experience with the Family Missions. They accomplished the pilgrimage part first, listening and seeing much of what they were shown, and as to sharing their experiences, the only thing that remained was having a conversation with the editor of schoenstatt.org, who was in Schoenstatt at that time: no other interest was shown except in listening to theirRead More
SPAIN, Fátima Alvarado. In December 2011, project “Encuentro” (“Encounter”) was born in Madrid within a group of people concerned about the situation in which many people suffer because they lack the basic things to live (home, food, clothing…).

The suspicion of those responsible for the International Kentenich Academy for Leaders, who were conducting the Jour Fixe, was confirmed: It’s the turn for thisRead More
FRANCE/SPAIN, Jean-Philippe Sendat. During the Schoenstatt Jubilee, exactly on the afternoon of the 18th of October 2014, after the renewal of the Covenant, a Jubilee project was born inspired by the daring of the first sodalists: “conquer” France for and with the MTA and Schoenstatt. This initiative emerged from the will of the French who live in France and in Spain listening to the desire of continuing to develop a Schoenstatt community whose roots are sustained by the preceding Schoenstatt generations in France and the Cambrai Unity Shrine. The firstRead More
ARGENTINA, Liliana Barba. For sixteen years, just as every year, the youths were there very early to organize the start of the walk. This time they had more resources, and also much more effort. A greater expectation in the number of pilgrims was joined to the challenge of walking twice the usual stretch for this unforgettable journey. At the end of the road, the fruit that had been dreamed for many years… a Homeland for the Blessed Mother! Finally, the Throne of our Mother Thrice Admirable Queen and Victress ofRead More
