Schoenstatt Movement Hall Update

Hall Update
Dear Friends and Members of our Schoenstatt Family,
We pray that the Advent Season is a time of spiritual renewal for you.
In the meantime, we have celebrated the official opening of our 100 th
jubilee year, and we are excited to share with you the fact that construction of our Schoenstatt Movement Hall is in full swing! See the
wonderful mess in the pictures we included! We are especially grateful
to our construction managers and their crews who are working to make
this dream a reality for us. We pray for their safety, and for a very mild
winter so that their work can proceed smoothly.
Our new Schoenstatt Movement Hall - with its large worship /
conference area, offices, meeting rooms, and new area for the youth –
will offer wonderful opportunities for us in the future. Not least of all, it
will enable us to open our doors to new groups who are in need of a
place of prayer and spiritual renewal in a peaceful, Catholic Christian
atmosphere. It will allow us to more effectively share the great treasure
of Schoenstatt and our center here in Waukesha with many more people! Your contributions - spiritual and material – are not only helping to
build a building. They are helping to fulfill a mission!
With God’s continued blessing, construction will take about a year. Our
goal remains to offer the new hall as our gift when we celebrate the
100th jubilee of Schoenstatt’s founding in October, 2014.
Thank you to all of you who have made our progress possible through
your prayers and generous financial gifts. Your continued support is
greatly appreciated and needed! Your financial gifts will continue to
make a difference as we work together to fund such a significant building project. May our Lord and our Blessed Mother bless you richly for
your kindness and generosity, especially during the coming Christmas
season.

A Christmas Gift Suggestion!
Fr. Gerold Langsch, in collaboration with some of the Sisters
and youth members, has produced a new CD collection of
spiritual music, titled “Hall Concert 2013”. It is an amazing
mix of styles and instruments which makes the CD a great
gift for many different age groups. We are seeking a $15
donation for each CD. All profits from the sale of this CD go
towards the funding of our new hall. Plus we can offer you a
complete recording of the Hall Concert on DVD, titled “Music
from the Heart”, also for $ 15.00. To get your copy of the CD
and/or DVD, please contact either the Schoenstatt Retreat
Center (262-522-4300) or Fr. Gerold (262-339-9627).
