Happy Easter!

Apr 14, 2014

Easter wishes from the Focolare president as she and Giancarlo Faletti visit Brazil.

“Everything in Brazil tells of the resurrection – the flowers, fruits, colours and fragrances – and it is natural here to wish everyone Happy Easter!

During Holy Week, I’ll visit the National Shrine of Brazil dedicated to our Lady of Aparacida. I’ll take to Her all your sorrows, joys and desires – especially those of Her Brazilian sons and daughters who have made Her family grow throughout the world.”

In the joy of the Risen Lord,

Maria Emmaus Voce

Maria Voce is scheduled to attend 9:00 Mass (local time – UTC -3) at Aparecida Shrine on April 15, 2014. The Mass can be viewed live on Aparecida TV at: http://www.a12.com/tv-aparecida/institucional/detalhes/tv-ao-vivo

Living the Gospel: in search of those who are lost

Sep 11, 2025

In the parable of the lost sheep, Jesus asks us to watch over those around us, to go in search of anyone who strays and to show the same care and gentleness as the shepherd in our relationships and friendships. Seeking, finding one another, going out to meet others and at the same time, experiencing the joy of being loved are all an invitation to gratitude for the mercy that God has for each of us.
