Every country is invited to be present in its room through a picture of the Our Lady of Schoenstatt, a cross and a picture of something something particular of the country.
The Domus Father Kentenich - the variety of the nations flood here
At the consecration of “the shrine of all of us" in September 2004, many original jars were carried to the shrine by representatives of a variety of nations. Ten years later countries are now invited to be visible in "their" room in the Father's house by leaving something of value.Each country is free to choose the design of the MTA Picture, cross and picture that is characteristic for their country.
Anyone staying in one of these rooms later would “stay” in the heart and life of the country with its very original mission and culture.
Belmonte should be the gift of all countries, a house for all peoples and cultures in the Covenant. Where everyone is able to be, as he is, and all are at home living under one roof with one another, beside each other, in each other.
Schoenstatt members, groups and communities from several countries also did a great effort to financially sponsor "their" room at the Domus Pater Kentenich.
