Secular Institute of the Schoenstatt Sisters of Mary ISSM

Schoenstatt is an international movement within the Catholic Church. Schoenstatt’s spirituality lives by developing and applying a practical belief in Divine Providence for day to day living.

It understands the spiritual life as an imitation of Mary’s life in a Marian attitude and binding to Christ.
The spirituality of Schoenstatt has been experienced in the Movement’s history and described by the Founder Fr Joseph Kentenich as having three dimensions:

• Marian Covenant Spirituality
• Instrumentality
• Everyday Sanctity
