Final Thanks

 

In sum, we truly thank everyone. The speakers have offered us papers f great spiritual and intellectual quality, which held the attention of our assembly of over 250 persons.

A special word of thanks to the members of the Scientific Committee, first of all to father Michal van Parys, who at the end has given us a concise summary of the proceedings, to professor Antonio Rigo, who is always of great stimulus and support; to Hervé Legrand, who offers us his wisdom; and to the other members.

I wish to express the joy of our community every time that it welcomes monks and nuns of eastern and western monasteries, with whom we have a sincere communion in perseverant following of the Lord.

We thank the interpreters, the technician, our friends who faithfully return, all the participants.

We dare to say: good-by until next year, in the same week of September. By that time the Acts of this conference, we hope, will have been published.

As for the theme of our next conference, if you have nay suggestions, we will be glad to receive and evaluate them. The Scientific Committee will meet on 4–5 November.

Sincere thanks, from me, from the Community. I want to express to you all our friendship, all our desire that we may see one another not only in these conferences, that we may see one another again during our earthly course. Every moment of the year our community is open to receive you, to taste together how good and how sweet is the Lord. Thank you truly!
