Writings by Chiara Lubich
The wisdom of this collection is remarkable. It is mystical and practical at the same time. Lubich says, “We can’t go to God alone, but we must go to him with our brothers and sisters, since he is the Father of us all.” The neighbor is a necessity if we are to have mutual love, the profound love that is receptive to the grace of unity. The book sends you forth with a heart eager to love as Jesus loved.

A group of children in Rome collected 300 euros for the Audio Phonetic Rehabilitation Institute (IRAP) located in Aïn, on the outskirts of Biakout, north of Beirut. They received a very touching letter of thanks. It reminds us of the true value of solidarity and the responsibility to which each of us is called: to be seeds of hope and peace even in the darkness.
For the first time, Chiara Lubich’s account of her mystical experience is being published in its complete form as part of the collection of her works published by Città Nuova. From 8th May it will be available in Italian bookshops and on online stores. Below is an introduction by Piero Coda, who along with Alba Sgariglia edited the publication.
The magazine “Neue Stadt”, which is published in Germany for the whole German-speaking area, has a section where nine questions are put to a prominent figure to get to know them through a few short answers. In the latest issue, Roberto Almada was interviewed. He was recently elected as Co-President of the Focolare Movement.
