Dear Schoenstatt Family in the United States!

Greetings and peace to you all from Wisconsin.

It has come to our attention that an article is being published in Germany that brings back into focus questions about Father Kentenich’s exile. Please read the statement made by Schoenstatt’s General Presidium that accompanies this letter, as the International Schoenstatt Movement’s first response to these questions.

As we learn more about this situation, we will share that information with you. For now, we unite ourselves peacefully in prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to guide us to discover the truth present in this challenge.

United in the Covenant and in our trust in our Mother and Queen,

Fr. Mark Niehaus and the USA regional presidium
Delegate Superior of the Schoenstatt Fathers, USA
