About Us
Our Journey, Schoenstatt, and Father Joseph Kentenich
Schoenstatt is a movement of renewal within the Catholic Church that originated in Germany in 1914. The name “Schoenstatt” translates to “beautiful place,” which perfectly encapsulates the essence of our movement. Centered around a profound love for Mary, Schoenstatt encourages its followers to seal a covenant of love with her, seeking to mirror her faith, hope, and active love in their lives.
