Anniversary of the third milestone of the history of Schoenstatt
In Schoenstatt, the anniversary of the third milestone of the history of Schoenstatt will be celebrated with an Illumined Rosary - born in Argentina -; the event is sponsored by the Women's League. It is an effective and simple expression of the process that Father Kentenich often emphasized in connection with the third milestone, that means Schoenstatt's widening, Schoenstatt offering its richness and mission to the church. He said that the life born around Shrines outside Schoenstatt, and Germany, and Europe, nourished by the streams of life and grace from the Original Shrine, will return to its source, enriching and complementing it.
At 5:00 PM, a festive Holy Mass will be celebrated in the Adoration Church of the Adoration, sponsored by the Schoenstatt Branch of Academics.
This anniversary, that happily falls on a Saturday, will be celebrated also in many places of the world:
In Stuttgart, Germany, a celebration in the Shrine will be combined with a talk given about modern pastoral challenges and Schoenstatt response.
In Trujillo, Peru, the program of the day includes a pilgrimage to the Shrine, conferences, presentation of the Branches and allusive artistic representations fitting to the historical date.
In Cordoba, Argentina, the sixteen members of the ninth Course of the Mothers Federation will celebrate their dedication; in Germany, a course of the Mothers' Federation will have their Perpetual Consecration..
In Temuco, Chile, the National Encounter of the Boy's Youth will begin on May 31, it is called "Youth Cenacle Temuco 2003".At least 350 youths, originating from different representative communities of various Chilean Sanctuaries, will meet for an intensive workshop, and walking the "tracks of the Father " (from Father Kentenich's visists to Temuco)

ARGENTINA: Fifth Workshop on Bioethics
On June 14, in New Schoenstatt, Argentina , the Fifth Workshop on Bioethics will take place. The theme to be treated is: "Bioethical questions around the experience and diagnostic of illness in a techno-scientific culture".
Each inconvenience and each illness exist simultaneously in three environments:
- in the subjective experience (the person feels sick),
- in the social evaluation (the person is considered sick)
- and in the medical science (the doctor diagnoses that illness and treats it)
These three aspects describe different realities and different meanings for each symptom of the pain. Do these three environments allow a complementary vision?
The organic vision of the human being – as to be exposed in the Workshop – permits to relate harmonically these three environments. In this perspective, the work of the health professional is to alleviate the aching (for person that feels sick), to cure the patient (of the illness diagnosed), and to heal with benevolence and to comply with the accompaniment, comprehension and social support of the patient.
Speakers will be experts competent in areas of medicine, of nursing, of health institutions, and of the pastoral of the sick.
The Bioethical Workshop aims to promote an organic loving, thinking and living in service of a culture of life in the biomedical disciplines, in opposition to a vision limited to the technical and scientific aspects that considers illness only as a diagnostic objective and ignores the importance of the person sufriente.
