Sister Marie Day and Sister Maria Jose, Schoenstatt Sisters of Mary, visited St. John Newmann school and explained the Schoenstatt Movement to the children on October 18, 2016.
On October 18, 2016, the monthly remembrance of Fr. Kentenich’s First Founding Document on October 18, 1914, Southern Illinois members of the Schoenstatt Movement crowned its Pilgrim MTAs at Mother of Perpetual Help in Maryville, Illinois. The crowned Pilgrim MTAs will visit many homes to augment the Schoenstatt Rosary Campaign and begin the move for Our Mother Thrice Admirable (MTA) as Queen of the Three Graces on the Move from just a visit to a permanent home shrine!
Fr. Joseph Havrilka, pastor of Mother of Perpetual Help, officiated and Sr. Marie Day from the Schoenstatt National Center in Waukesha, WI provided a reflection. How blessed we are in Southern Illinois to have Our Mother Thrice Admirable visiting members of our homes with the crowned Pilgrim MTAs! May Our Queen of the Three Graces on the Move help these visits grow into Covenants of Love and Home Shrines!
Rose and her family crowned Mother Thrice Admirable in their home shrine on October 16, 2016. How blessed we are to have Sr. Isabel present and Fr. Carlos presiding!
Carol and Keith take our Auxiliary Shrine to the Schoenstatt International Center to recrown our Blessed Mother and deliver our rosaries for war victims and those suffering religious persecution. We had enough rosaries to make the journey from Santa Maria, Brazil to Waukesha, WI 2.5 times!
Special thanks to all who contributed to this pilgrimage!
Alice, a long time member of our Southern Illinois MTA Illinois group, moves to Virginia to be with her sister and family. Best wishes, Alice! We will miss your loving hugs!!!
