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: A Priority for Maria Voce (Emmaus)

On 20 June 2026, we mark the first anniversary of the passing of Maria Voce (Emmaus), the first President of the Focolare Movement (2008–2021) after Chiara Lubich. As we remember her, we asked ourselves: how did Emmaus live out unity in everyday life? The focolarine who lived with her during her final years recount a number of small episodes—little “acts of love” if you will —that reveal how mutual love, lived faithfully in every circumstance, lays the foundations for receiving unity as a gift from God.
