ARGENTINA, mkf. The many readers of "La Nación Revista"(LRN) ["The Nation Magazine], were pleasantly surprised last Sunday. "La Nación Revista" is a weekly magazine of the newspaper "La Nación" www.lanacion.com.ar which is one of the oldest and most important newspapers in Argentina. The topic of the headline is entitled "God" and – what a surprise! – among the articles in this magazine of new- style- journalism reporting they discovered one Federico Dumas who belongs to the Family Federation. He is shown in the photo with a Pilgrim MTA in his hands and several others on his desk….. It is reported there that he coordinates 700 Pilgrim MTA’s who visit the businesses in downtown Buenos Aires and he received the newspaper reporter in the small Shrine he has in his office in downtown Buenos Aires.
"I am happy knowing that I am sheltered and guided by God the Father. The basic change I made in my faith experience was to go from living my Catholicism as formalism to living it out of conviction," relates Federico Dumas, a consultant on petrochemistry and industrial training. He is the father of six children and the grandfather of nine. " – this is how the article begins which was published in the LNR. It does not speak of organic thinking, loving and living, instead the entire text is a distinguished testimony about organic attachment between faith and work…..between faith and life…..between faith and all the happenings of life, faith and the emotions. A few words recap what for Father Kentenich was that important step in going from formalism to the freedom of the children of God who love God as their father with their whole being – that love which leads them to develop that creativity which is capable of moving mountains. Federico Dumas made a commitment to Schoenstatt.de to give more information on the apostolate with the Pilgrim MTA in the places of business and its insertion in the pastoral activity in the parish of Santa Catalina.
Also news last week was: the life of the Schoenstatt Sisters of Mary in the "Borken Zeitung" newspaper from Borken, Germany; conferences for separated and divorced women in the "Rhein-Zeitung" newspaper from Koblenz, Germany; the blessing of pregnant mothers on March 25th in the Shrine of Madrid as reported in the news agency "Veritas" and the foundress of a new community in Miami, USA who discovered her vocation in a Schoenstatt Shrine in the Dominican Republic.
As evidenced, the Blessed Mother is in great haste to make Herself known through Her children and She has started a strong campaign in the communication media.
