Schoenstatt Scotland
Iona, the Provincial visited and spent some time at Schoenstatt Scotland, as did some other
sisters from the time of the founding of Schoenstatt Scotland, and she will be returning in
December for a brief visit. Archbishop Leo Cushily Presided at the major celebrations.
the Retreat Centre, the Shrine and the Garage were all repainted, and now look stunning and
sharp in their new, latest technology Dulux paint. We are also benefitting from a new
heating system that uses wood pellets, and so the house and the water is much hotter than
previous as we move into our next 25 years. As you can see on the front page, we have also
had installed a new Father symbol in the ground outside the Shrine replacing the earlier one.
One of
the best images we had on Facebook this year was of this little chap who in the end
retreats has grown, and we have had parish retreats from all over, and from different
diocese this year. We continue to hold many day retreats for school children which
culminates per annum into thousands of kids spending the day at the Retreat Centre, or one
of our sisters visiting a school. We also organise bespoke retreats to the individual or small
group as and when required, subject to a Spiritual Directors diary and the calendar.
We wish to thank all of the parishes who supported us by placing news of our retreats and
events into their bulletins and or at the back of their churches on their noticeboards. We
also wish to thank the priests who have helped us during retreats and for offering mass
during retreats. It is very much appreciated!
We are in the process of enhancing again, our web presence, and this will allow us a news
blog with extended connections. We will also have a YouTube channel for video hosting and
much more, so keep an eye on www.schoenstatt.co.uk. Facebook continues to be the place
where you can access not simply updates about Schoenstatt, but also wonderful images,
prayer general, prayer specific, arrow prayer, stories following various themes, events and
much more. Finally, over the next week or so, Sr. Claire, Director of Festive Flair, will be
draping and bedecking everything she can with Christmas decorations, including all of the
internal trees, yes, there is many more than one. With Stuart decorating several trees out on
the estate with lights.
Below is a favourite image over the last two years that sums up Schoenstatt and its work and
that of those who assist us in that work, retired
teachers and others whom we heartily thank
for all their time, effort and dedication. Have a
truly Blessed Christmas all!
