New life in Zimbabwe

ZIMBABWE, Marlene Peter. The Schoenstatt Family of Zimbabwe experiences new life! In January – most probably on January 20 – the Happi family from Cameroon will seal their Covenant of Love. The Happis brought along another Cameroonian family for the last meeting, and so all took some time to introduce themselves and to tell about when they joined the Schoenstatt family – our beginning. A renewed excitement was the result…

 

 

The little room that hosts the Shrine altar was filled to capacity. There were about twenty-four people, including six children. The covenant celebration had a meditation on living shrines. So all fitted in perfectly with the year’s motto, THROUGH OUR ‘YES’ MAY WE BECOME LIVING SHRINES OF HOPE AND LOVE. Everyone spent a long while in a time of prayer offering thanksgiving and petitions. Then after praying the 5th glorious mystery of the rosary, singing along with a CD, they renewed the Covenant of love through reciting the Covenant prayer.

During Advent, the Schoenstatt members supported and inspired Shelter Seeking in their parishes.
