We would like to share with you the joy of having been able to have the help of hour very kind people who offered to help clean the path uphill to the Stations of the Cross/Via Crucis at Mount Schoenstatt. These very generous helpers even brought wood and tools to repair and paint the stations, cut branches, and assemble four new benches! We enjoyed working together with them.
Limpieza y Arreglos en el Camino del Vía Crucis
El sábado anterior a la Semana Santa, unos voluntarios de gran corazón vinieron a realizar una limpieza y reparaciones en el camino del Vía Crucis en nuestro Santuario. Ellos vinieron con mucho cariño a trabajar durante todo el día limpiando la maleza, cortando ramas, pintando y colocando las estaciones del Via Crucis de mejor manera para que sea de mejor acceso para todos. Trajeron materiales y armaron unas hermosas bancas nuevas para que podamos sentarnos a conversar con nuestra Madre del Cielo.
¡Les damos las eternas gracias y rezamos por ustedes para que Dios y nuestra Madre siempre los cuide y proteja a ustedes y sus familias!
Cleaning and Repairs of the Stations of the Cross Trail
On the Saturday before Holy Week, some big-hearted volunteers came to help clean and repair the Stations of the Cross path at Mount Schoenstatt. They came with great affection to work throughout the day clearing the brush, cutting branches, painting and placing the Stations of the Cross in a way that is more accessible to everyone. The volunteers brought materials and put together some beautiful new benches so that we can sit and talk with our Mother in Heaven.
We give you eternal thanks for all you did, and we pray for you so that God and our Mother will always take care of you and protect you and your families!
