113 interventions prove that He wishes our Congregation to continue its existence. However, it needs people with passion who, attracted by the charismatic vision planted by the Holy Spirit in our Founder, as well as by his life and works, will give all of their talents and strength to the continuation of our Congregation. We, the Superiors, are called fi rst to the task of deepening our identity and our charism; to become infl amed by the vision that ignited and transformed the life of our Founder and of his spiritual sons; to bring and ignite this fl ame in our house communities and our confreres. A fi sh starts going bad from its head, but the healing (physical, psychological or spiritual) also starts often from the head. First, our General Superior and the General Government must burn with a new zeal and new faithfulness; next, it would be the turn of the Provincial and Vicariate Superiors along with their governments and councils. They must ignite the house superiors, who will in turn pass it on to their house members. It would be good if a new wind blows among our vocation directors and formators, and through them—to our youngest members and the approaching generations of Marians. If we fail to ignite them with a new fervor, there will soon be no one to carry out even the best of plans. But if strongly inspired, they shall shape, along with us, the Congregation of the future. Immaculata Virginis Mariae Conceptio sit nobis salus et protectio!
