Some people’s lives become remarkable and significant when they leave a message of commitment and love for the mission. This is the case of the people we call “Schoenstatt Heroes.” They are personalities who inspire new generations to follow Christ, living in Covenant with Mary. Some of these personalities are recognized by the Church and bear titles such as “Blessed,” “Venerable,” or “Servant of God.” Others are popularly known within the Schoenstatt Work, internally, and all have the same characteristic: fidelity and enthusiasm in the life of the Covenant of Love. You will find articles about Schoenstatt heroes and news about their beatification processes on this page. But more than that, this page wants to be an inspiration for the emergence of new heroes worldwide.
