| “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 |

Live as protagonists!
This year marks a particularly significant dual anniversary: the 23rd anniversary of the death of Cardinal François-Xavier Nguyên Van Thuân (16th September 2002) and the 50th of the period in which, after his arrest (15 August 1975), he wrote 1001 thoughts in prison addressed to all the baptized, later collected in the volume “The Way of Hope”. His memory lives on as that of a faithful pastor who knew how to transform prison into a space of prayer, forgiveness and offering: a man who showed how no chain can suffocate hope and that the light of the Gospel overcomes all darkness.
A short sentence to guide the day.
On the 21st and 22nd of May 2025, the “Sustainable Peace Networks: Dialogue between Different Perspectives and Faiths Forum” brought together 120 peace workers from 90 organisations.
