Conclusion 103 born endurance and creativity of those who, undaunted, are ever ready to start over again. (Christus Vivit, 45) In prayer and trust, we walk with Mary in the journey of accompaniment, confident in a God who continues to accompany our Church: For you never forsake the works of your wisdom, but by your providence are even now at work in our midst. With mighty hand and outstretched arm you led your people Israel through the desert. Now, as your Church makes her pilgrim journey in the world, you always accompany her by the power of the Holy Spirit and lead her along the paths of time to the eternal joy of your Kingdom, through Christ our Lord. (Eucharistic Prayer for Various Needs II)
