In a divided and polarised world, can Movements and new Communities contribute to unity within the Church and in the world? On the eve of the great Jubilee of the Movements in St Peter’s Square, at which Pope Leo XIV will be present, some of the moderators of different ecclesial movements describe the value of the path of friendship and collaboration.
A training course on emotional and sexual education for children and families, offering the chance to grow together as a family unit by developing positive relationships with oneself and others and gaining relationship skills for family and community life.
We would like to share the testimony given by Aureliana and Julián from Paraguay during the Jubilee of Families, Children, Grandparents and the Elderly held in Rome on 31st May-1st June, 2025, attended by 50.000 people and in the presence of Pope Leo XIV.
When I was in secondary school in the year 1990, a group of Focolare movement from Belgium visited my school then at Onitsha South East Nigeria. It was a amazing time then with them evangelizing and yelling us about the movement and Sister Chiara’s story. I was particularly impressed and loved the songs they thought us then. There was also a Focolare song book containing songs like “First a flame”, Let us love everyone, Emmanuel, God is love, etc.
I have tried to browse the Internet to reconnect with these songs, the lyrics or even an e copy of the song book so that I can teach my children.
Pls how can you help me? I need those songs…very unique compositions… Pls help me if you can. Thanks
