Christmas greetings from Margaret Karram and Jesús Morán - President and Co-president of the Focolare Movement
From 20 December 2025, preparations for General Assembly will continue with a series of meetings known as the pre-assembly process. This will be a time of preparation, discernment, but above all, of sharing and will involve many people from the most diverse parts of the world.
Founded in 1997, the initiative ‘They have evicted Jesus’ originates from a reflection by Chiara Lubich, foundress of the Focolare Movement, who, struck by the absence of any reference to the true meaning of Christmas, invited people to bring Jesus back to the heart of it.
A number of events marked the fiftieth anniversary of the birth of this reality of the Focolare Movement, which contributes to embodying the ideal of unity through the structures of the local Church.
Jubilee 2025
The goal: to cooperate in building a more united world, inspired by Jesus’ prayer to the Father
“may they all be one” (Jn 17:21),
respecting and valuing diversity.
The Movement, which started in the Catholic Church,
includes Christians of different Churches and ecclesial communities. It collaborates with members of other religions and people of non-religious beliefs.
