The meeting sponsored by the Focolare and the Islamic communities in Italy aims to bring together Christians and Muslims who in recent years have met in different parts of Italy thanks to the experience of dialogue that was inspired by Chiara Lubich’s spirituality of communion. Collaboration has begun in various parts of the peninsula, such as Trent, Verona, Treviso, Padua, Trieste, Rovigo, Turin, Milan, Genoa, Parma, Reggio Emilia, Florence, Rome, Teramo. Inspired by the desire to reach out to others as the Golden Rule suggests, projects have often developed and partnerships that are providing models of integration in these areas. The 31 October date is in tune with Islamic-Christian friendship Day that is celebrated all over Italy on October 27 and it would like to be a moment of reflection on the experience till now. The program, prepared by an organizing committee made up of Christians and Muslims, includes meetings and discussions both of the Qur’an and the Gospel, life experiences, and a panel discussion on the challenges of dialogue, interspersed with artistic interludes performed by Muslim and Christian groups, and a presentation of the host town of Loppiano Religious and civil authorities are expected to be in attendance.
