摘要：I am going to focus attention today just a few days after Pentecost,
on Our Lady as the perfect disciple and pilgrim, leading up to her
active participation in her Son¡¯s act of Redemption. A disciple is one
who follows, and so a way is involved: Jesus, Who is the Way the
Truth and the Life (cfr. Jn 14:6). A way involves a journey or a pilgrimage.
So here is where I would suggest the link between Mary¡¯s
discipleship and our pilgrimage. Mary¡¯s discipleship involved a life¡¯s
pilgrimage which took her to the Cross of Christ and beyond. Our lives
are also a pilgrimage, and the pilgrimage which you have made to
Rome, is a sign and pledge of the journeying which we all make
through Christ in the Holy Spirit to God the Father. Our Lady indicates
to us the way to go and intercedes for us when the going is hard
and uneven. She also guides our steps in the ecumenical scene, and
brings us closer in Christ.
