Mixing it up: Celebrating the Immaculate Conception in special Mass

BURUNDI, Méthode Nyandwi and Diomède Mujojoma • The Schoenstatt Mount Sion Gikungu Shrine in Burundi celebrated the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception on Sunday, 4 December, four days before the official celebration by the Catholic Church. This solemnity is usually celebrated on 8 December every year, but this year since the date was on Thursday, mid-week, and because Schoenstatt Mount Sion Gikungu Shrine celebrates it in a grandiose way with the Apostolic Nuncio in Burundi celebrating Mass, it was decided instead to have it on Sunday, 4 December.

About schoenstatt.org

Connecting Schoenstatters

We offer here a selection of articles from schoenstatt.org, in English. Schoenstatt.org as such is available in Spanish, Portuguese, and German.

Our mission is to serve the life of the International Schoenstatt family and the Church by promoting bonds of solidarity - covenant culture - and offering this service as a testimony - culture of encounter.

In all our actions, we daily hear the echoes of the words given to us by Pope Francis during the audience on 25 October 2014, "a culture of encounter is a covenant culture that creates solidarity."

About Schoenstatt

Schoenstatt is an ecclesial Movement, where everyone, each according to his individual vocation and united in covenant, serves the Church and its mission and the world God has entrusted to us.

The core of Schoenstatt's foundation is the covenant of love with Mary, the Mother of God.

This covenant of love generates culture and covenant culture is the unique expression of our way of life and work, our attachment to God, to people, to nature and culture, to the Church and the world, which always departs from the covenant of love.

Schoenstatt's commitment to this covenant culture inspires it to go out from the shrines to the existential peripheries to "sanctuarize" the world, as Pope Francis says.
