This picture above is from APril 12, 1894 when Fr. Kentenich’s mom, Katharina took him as her 8 yr old son, and his belongings to the orphanage in Oberhausen Germany. Before leaving him there, she took him to the chapel there, where she knelt with him before this statue, of Mary, Sts Dominic and Catherine of Sienna. His mom took the only precious item she owned, her first Communion medal, hung it around Mary’s neck. She then consecrated her only child to the Blessed Mother and entrusted him to her care, praying, “Educate my child! Be entirely his Mother! Fulfill for me my duties as mother!”
