Christ is Risen!

Christ is Risen! Every suffering, separation, division, failure, and even death itself can become for us, because of Him, a source of light and peace. Called to give witness to the great message of the Resurrection, let us renew our common commitment to give hope and joy to humanity in this time of momentous change. With best wishes for a Happy Easter!

Maria Voce

During his recent audience with all the participants of the General Assembly of the Focolare Movement, Pope Leo XIV commented: “Unity is a seed – simple yet powerful – which attracts thousands of men and women, inspires vocations, and generates a zeal for evangelisation, as well as social, cultural, artistic and economic works, and is a leaven for ecumenical and interreligious dialogue.” Here are some words from Chiara Lubich, spoken on the 9th of November 1989 during a “Link-up”, which present unity to us as the rock upon which our lives are built.

Co-citizens of Loppiano: Together to Build the Future

The “Co-citizens of Loppiano” is an association born from those who spent a significant period of their lives in Loppiano (Incisa Val d ‘Arno, Italy), the Little Town of the Focolare Movement. Its mission is to support Loppiano, cooperating with its Governance, so that it can continue to be a point of hope, a place of witness and a centre of universal fraternity, just as Chiara Lubich envisioned it.
