Schoenstatt


The Schoenstatt Movement (German Schönstatt) is a Marian devotion founded in Germany in 1914 by Father Joseph Kentenich. Fr. Kentenich saw the movement as being a means of spiritual renewal in the Catholic Church.[1] The movement is not—even though this is the literal meaning of the word schoenstatt—named after the German words for beautiful place, but after a small village close to the town of Vallendar near Koblenz in Germany. Schoenstatt emphasizes a strong devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, upholding her as a perfect example of love and purity. Schoenstatt seeks to invite the Blessed Mother (and, hence, her divine Son, Jesus Christ), into the home by establishing a spiritual Covenant of Love with her[citation needed]. It encouraged its members to have the faith and purity of children, and to think of Mary as their mother. Because of all this, Schoenstatt also has developed in their youth the virtues of music and relating to god by writting and producing their own music. all the Schoenstatt Youth Comunnities around the world including some young priest and sisters, write music and songs. Here we can see some of them. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
