In brilliant sunshine, 4,000 persons celebrated a feast of faith with the motto "to live with you", on behalf of the 50th anniversary of the Shrine. "That is a living and moving church!"- one of many comments. To live with you, God; to live with you, Mary; to live with you, Shrine; to live with you, Father Kentenich; to live with you, person at my side, at my workplace; in our church, in our world: workshops, presentations, prayer services, music, and many personal encounters and talks made alive what preoccupies people – and what Mary has worked from here during fifty years; all that in a climate of joyful, lively, spontaneous faith and family-like attachment.
The feast climaxed in a festive Mass with diocesan bishop Dr. Gebhardt Fürst who was impressed by the commitment and liveliness of the Schoenstatters and thanked for the Liebfrauenhöhe as "important spiritual center for the entire diocese".
