I have been amazed to see the constant flow of pilgrims who come to show their devotion to Mary from all over the continent and this is a sort of mark of our people. This is for me an example and an encouragement for my own personal life of faith.

The answer is to live to its fullest our faith in Jesus and to openly proclaim the supreme gift of God to humanity: grace and salvation through Jesus made man. The answer is to live our ecclesial life in Jesus more intensely, and openly proclaim the message of salvation, clearly and boldly, without disputes between churches and in the joy of our Catholic identity.
