PARAGUAY, Diana Notario. “If each Schoenstatt married couple become missionaries, the Branch would be more Schoenstatt, since what the Rosary Campaign achieves is to put us in vital contact with the MTA, the Shrine, and the graces that radiate when the Pilgrim MTA is sent out to people’s homes… this is the Schoenstatt mystery in action…being apostles of an apostolate that sends Schoenstatt’s wealth to the last hut in our God’s nation.”
These are Fr. Antonio’s words from November 2010 when the initial kick-off of this joint task between the Rosary Campaign and the Family Work was given.
To begin with, the Rosary Campaign gave a Pilgrim MTA to the Married Couple’s Group. In each group meeting, She gives three graces to the couples and to each home that She visits within the same group, therefore obtaining a work not only outside the organized Movement, but also in the same cradle that is fertile land in Mary’s hands.
Monday, June 13, the married couples in charge of new groups: Cortazar, Monreale, Salum, Villagra, Paniagua, Brunet, Monzón, Sanabria, Melgarejo, Enciso, Mendez gave their ‘YES’ to this project. Father Antonio, from the Youth Shrine, blessed this Mission, sending them out as missionaries day by day, and taking on the responsibility for this great gift of Schoenstatt to the Church.
This Schoenstatt Rosary Campaign/Family Movement program does not only want to create enthusiasm for an apostolate, but to be a type of motivation for us to become apostles!
In the Rosary Campaign, all the vital forces of Schoenstatt become effective obtaining through Our Queen that everyone together as a family are educated in the Covenant of Love, and then from our heart shrines we radiate light everywhere!
Thank you dear Mother for this opportunity that you give to us: The power to be a united Schoenstatter Family in this task!
FAMILY IN COVENANT FOR A NEW PARAGUAY!
