Donate to the Shrine

The Marian Shrine of Our Lady of Schoenstatt relies entirely on the generosity and support of its pilgrims, visitors, and members. Below are some of the ways you can support the Shrine.

Donations in honor of Fr. Christian

In place of gifts, donations in honor of Fr. Christian may be made to Schoenstatt Fathers Vocations. To donate, click below and select ‘Schoenstatt Fathers’. Thank you for your generosity!

 Ways to Give

St. Joseph Circle
Monthly recurring gifts

One of the most significant ways you can contribute to the Shrine is to be a monthly recurring supporter. St. Joseph Circle Members give a minimum of $50/month donation to the Shrine and are remembered in prayers and Masses throughout the year. An electronic monthly donation drafted directly from your checking account or credit card reduces fundraising overhead and helps cover our ongoing operational expenses.

Please consider contributing to the Shrine in this very special way and, like St. Joseph, help us to take care of the home we built for Mary and Jesus in Austin. To become a member simply select the option to make your gift a recurring monthly gift.

One-time Gift

Your one-time gift will go directly to support the Shrine and can be designated for a special need at your request (such as a specific Movement Branch, the Schoenstatt Fathers, Consecrated Ladies of Schoenstatt, or one of our apostolates such as Austin Caritas, Good Friday Pilgrimage, or Rosary Campaign).

Legacy Gifts and Planned Giving

Donate stocks, securities, personal property, retirement plans, and or other assets to the Shrine, and remember the Shrine in your will or trust. Through gifts, large and small, our supporters help us to provide for the needs of our pilgrims and make possible the daily miracles of the Shrine.

Other Ways to Help

You can also support us by praying for us, our Schoenstatt Fathers, and Consecrated Ladies of Schoenstatt, sharing our mission, becoming a volunteer, or requesting a Mass intention.
