In Conversation with
Schoenstatt Sisters of Mary in Switzerland
What fascinates you about our Sisters Family?
Sister Ursula-Maria Bitterli
That we belong to a large community!
Sister Ruth-Maria Bortis
What fascinates me personally about our family is that we are still able to experience our father and founder; that he has remained with us, thanks to our superiors and fellow sisters who have proclaimed him to us and exemplified him in their lives, and also that we may be close to the people, among the people and share, with them for their lives, his mission and the MTA—Mother Three Times Admirable of Schoenstatt–from the shrine.
Sister M. Beatris Lingg
There is much that fascinates me about our family. One of the things is that our family is international and all cultures gather around their head (the founder), their heart (The MTA) and their home (the shrine).
Sister M. Susanna Stutz
I find it fascinating when outsiders give feedback saying: You are a happy sister. You have a beautiful community.
Sister Rita-Maria Alessi
The love of the Blessed Virgin Mary and that everything is based on freedom and that we can be with people.
Sister M. Josianne Belau
The father and founder of our family fascinates me–everything he has given our family—himself totally!
