CHILE, red. With great enthusiasm Nueva Patris Publishers Chile announced recently something new in the world of Schoenstatt communications. For the first time, a Schoenstatt publisher has taken the initial steps towards an international service, offering an e-book in several languages at the same time. The book, written by Fr. Carlos Padilla from Spain: “One Hundred Years’ Journey, a View of Schoenstatt“ is available in five languages (Spanish, English, Italian, German and Portuguese). The hardcopy can be purchased in Spanish (mail to be posted to all countries) and in digital format as an e-book in the aforementioned languages.
In order to obtain a copy in Spanish or e-book from Nueva Patris Publishers, this link and search for author or title.
According to María Teresa Ramírez, Nueva Patris manager, the upcoming re-launch of their page will make it easier for customers who do not understand Spanish to find this material and, in future, other e-books and print books in German, Italian, English and Portuguese.
Pioneer steps
Preparations are already underway for e-book and print copy launches of two additional new books on Schoenstatt’s mission in the heart of the Church: “In the footsteps of Fr. Kentenich in Rome” by Mons. Peter Wolf (a print version already available here in Spanish) and “Belmonte according to Fr. Kentenich” which is a compilation of conferences given by Fr. Kentenich on his vision of a renewed Church and his desire for a Schoenstatt Shrine in Rome. Nueva Patris Publishers, in collaboration with the Schoenstatt Institute of Diocesan Priests (responsible for the International Schoenstatt Centre in Rome) and the team of translators from schoenstatt.org will launch these books (both in digital and print format) in English, Portuguese, Italian, and of course, Spanish. The German version is already – only the print version – available at the Schoenstatt-Verlag in Germany.
