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.

Always be a family
In the trust that Jesus places in us, each one can find the strength to love as he teaches and the ability to bear witness to that love as the disciples did.In love it is possible to go beyond ourselves and our weaknesses. When Jesus dwells in us, what he works is nothing short of wonderful.
Eliminate every desire of power. In a world constantly torn apart by conflict and in following Pope Leo XIV’s invitation to build an “unarmed and disarming” peace, we want to share a reflection by Chiara Lubich that is extremely relevant for us today, taken from a 1981 Word of Life.
How can we become peacemakers in our everyday lives, right where we are? Anibelka Gómez, from the Dominican Republic, shares her story, showing how education can build human networks that sow beauty for the good of entire communities.
