As a Domestic Church, as a "Church in miniature" faith plays a central role in our married and family life. Everyday anew we try to discover God in our daily life and try to make our contact with Him come alive.
...and passing it on (our apostolate)
The family is the core cell of the Church and society. A new Christian social order can therefore only come about with the renewal of marriage and family life. Herein lies the emphasis and starting point for our personal, as well as our community apostolate.
The starting point is our own family. Husband and wife try to discover more and more their God-willed loving relationship to each other as well as their relationship as a father and mother to and with their children. For their children, they become as parents, the first pathway to God and in this way have an alternate way to proclaiming the Gospel.
Structuring our life in such a way according to our faith will have a radiating effect on other families as well as on our surroundings.
As a community we bear a special responsibility for the entire Schoenstatt Family Movement. Furthermore, we try to get involved as much as possible in catechism classes, marriage preparation courses and other forms of training for couples and families, such as courses on the theology of the body with emphasis on natural family planning.
