Yet, this intercultural effort has borne fruit. The Chapter members now take home not just a document but a shared desire to draw closer to the Lord and to \u201cdo whatever He tells you,\u201d echoing Mary\u2019s words at Cana, which had been a focus of prayer and reflection throughout the assembly.<\/h3>\n<p>Fr. Eunan McDonnell, Provincial of Ireland, offered a profound meditation on the Gospel of Luke: \u201cShe treasured all these things in her heart.\u201d That same process now awaits the Chapter members\u2014allowing the experiences of Turin, the journey back, and the joy of reunion to settle in the mind and the heart.<\/p>\n<p>Rector Major Fr. Fabio Attard offered a heartfelt farewell that left space for further reflection in Rome. \u201cI\u2019ve only arrived two weeks ago,\u201d he said, \u201cwhile you have been here for eight\u2026\u201d He encouraged everyone to carry the joy and treasures of the GC29 back to their provinces with courage and hope.<\/p>\n<p>The Chapter will officially conclude with a solemn Eucharistic celebration on Saturday 12, at 11:00 am, presided over by the Rector Major, Fr.
