Bio / Background
The simple story of "Heavenwards, Always," can be read on the back side of the CD cover: "A Schoenstatt Sister of Mary gave me a tiny blue prayer book, "Heavenwards." She told me that it was written by Father Joseph Kentenich, in a Nazi concentration camp. I opened it and began to read Father Kentenich's "Morning Offering," secretly dictated in Dachau, March 29, 1945:
"What I bear and endure, what I say and what I dare...what I am and what I have...all my joys and all my sorrows...I give to you as a gift of love...."
Like Dorothy in Oz or Alice in Wonderland, I fell into a new world---the world of Father Joseph Kentenich....a world where all that matters is simplicity and humility; where sacrifice can fill God's treasury of Grace; where God's Providence cannot be erased in a death camp; and where a love of the Mother Thrice Admirable can help anyone to become a child again.
Reading his words, I wanted to know more about this humble German priest.
↓ more ↓What did he suffer? What did he dare? What did he take on? What brought him joy or inflicted a sore? What, surrounded by the horrors of his situation, caused him to compose the words to his Morning Offering? My journey with Father Joseph Kentenich was just beginning. I began setting his "Heavenwards" prayers to music as I sought to see Dachau through his childlike eyes.
So now, I give this to you, as a gift of love. Yours, k."
