Holy Week 2012

Apr 5, 2012

"A constantly renewed love": Maria Voce’s Easter greetings from Guatemala.

“After the resurrection, Jesus remained another 40 days on earth with his followers. Could it be that he wanted to show his desire to remain among us, to help shoulder our responsibilities and to share in our difficulties, joys, sufferings, victories and failures…?

And if this is so, wouldn’t our constantly renewed reciprocal love, that allows him to continuously rise in us and among us, be the best way to live in a perennial Easter?

From Guatemala, where the mysteries of Holy Week are lived very intensely, may my warmest wishes reach all the friends of the Focolare Movement around the world so this may be so!”

Emmaus (Maria Voce)

Sep 17, 2025

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.
