We are at a turning point, a paradigm shift on a global scale. More than a century after the birth of the Schoenstatt Movement, it is more alive than ever.

The local and the global are gaining strength. The union of spirits and the upholding of the Covenant of love is our reason for being so that its essence may endure and be projected into the world. Returning to our origins, to our essence, to our heritage, will give us strength and inspiration to continue to be witnesses of Mary and to bring the light of Christ to the world.

We need resources to maintain the Original Shrine, a symbol of our history and faith, and its immediate surroundings, which are visited by thousands of people each year. We also have to pay for the cost of investigating the cause.

We also need more resources to communicate with each other. To get to know each other, to coordinate and to organize ourselves in order to enrich each other. That is why we need to secure and maintain the International Coordination of the Movement, which among other things, is responsible for the official communication of the Schoenstatt Movement: it manages the website, operates the social networks, administers the website, runs the social networks, maintains contact with new Schoenstatt Families in new countries and supports their development, and represents the international Movement in the General Presidium.

Thank you again for your unconditional support and for being a fundamental part of our Schoenstatt International Family.
