One year later: 25th Anniversary of the Shrine of Light in New York
The Schoenstatt Family in New York prepares to secure that the coming times are decided by the Mother Thrice Admirable, Queen and Victress of Schoenstatt who reigns from her Shrine of Light. On October 19, 2002, the 25th Anniversary of this shrine will be celebrated. The entire Schoenstatt Family in New York, as well as representatives from states on the East Coast, will present the Blessed Mother once again with the crown that Fr. Kentenich offered the MTA on September 16, 1965, when he visited New York on his way to Rome. This crown, which has traveled from home shrine to home shrine for a little over a year now, will be given to the "Queen of Light" with the petition for continued protection over New York, over the USA, and for an increase of numerous vocation for all branches of the Schoenstatt Work in New York and for the entire East Coast.
