Dear Friends:

"A pilgrimage is a symbol of life; it makes us aware that to live is to walk; it is a journey", as Pope Francis has reminded us. May this path you are taking to the Shrine of our Lady of Good Help in Wisconsin make you ever more aware that life is this continual pressing on towards the One who has fascinated us, and this alone can satisfy the expectations of any human heart. Ask our Lady to sustain you in your journey so that you may experience her close companionship in every moment of this pilgrimage.Remember me as you walk.

Yours,

Fr. Julián Carrón
