The closing Mass, presided over by the Bishop, drew inspiration from the Gospel of Luke 20:27–40. In his homily, he emphasized the message: “He is not God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.” He reminded the women that Christian hope rests on the promise of eternal life, encouraging them to live courageously and faithfully in the presence of the living God.
The convention is being hailed as a milestone, fostering spiritual renewal, unity among parishes, and a renewed commitment to Catholic identity.
