Easter 2011: Bringing the Risen Jesus to the streets of the world

Apr 19, 2011

ThIs greeting from Maria Voce invites us to make a renewed commitment in our life in order to give witness.

“Dearest all ,

The Good News that we are still called to live today is that Jesus is risen and is alive in our midst through our mutual love.

The evangelical message of 2,000 years ago is still relevant today and draws us all into a new commitment in life and giving witness.

The wish that I would like to reach each one of our large family everywhere is to always walk with Him, the Risen One, through the streets of the world.”

Maria Voce

Unity, as the fulfilment of Jesus’ words ‘Father, may they all be one’ (Jn 17:21), is one of the key points of the Focolare Movement’s spirituality. But how can we achieve unity, how can we receive the grace of unity? Chiara Lubich spoke about this on the 26th of September 1996 in her message during a ‘Link-up’. We are presenting an extract from that message here.
