Together Giving Hope

Mar 23, 2018

Cristiani e musulmani in cammino nel carisma dell’unità.

Christians and Muslims on the march, in the charism of unity “What is impossible to thousands of isolated and divided individuals, seems to become possible for people who have made mutual love, mutual understanding and unity the essential motive of their life.” (Chiara Lubich to a group of Muslims, December 7, 2002 in Madrid, Spain) Promoted by the Focolare Movement’s Centre for Interreligious Dialogue, an open gathering will be held on the afternoon of April 21, 2018, from 16:00 until 19:00. The event will take place within the context of some days of sharing between Muslims and Christians which has grown into very solid dialogue and fraternity. Reflections and experiences will be offered from around the world that began and developed within the light of Chiara Lubich’s charism of unity. The common hope is to offer some glimpses of hope inside the complex and often painful situations today’s world is going through. The event will take place at the Mariapolis Centre of Castelgandolfo, Italy. For information: congressoaprile18@focolare.org
