Focolare Movement

Slovenia: Religious from around the world with Maria Voce

Aug 9, 2011

Maria Voce and Giancarlo Faletti met wth the members of the “secreteriats of consecrated religious” adherent of the Focolare Movement. The theme of their meeting: "To bring to life the message of Chiara Lubich in a down to earth way."

At the conclusion of their visit to the Focolare community in Slovenia, Maria Voce and Giancarlo Faletti met with the secretariats of consecrated religious, adherents of the Focolare Movement, during their annual meeting. They are seventy, six from Asia, seven from Africa, five from Brazil, one from Canada and the rest from almost all European countries. It is the third time that the president of the Focolare and the co-president met the leaders of this significant part of the movement and therefore knowledge has become more and more profound, simple and familiar. The meeting was in the Mariapolis Center Spes – Upanje, obtained with very good taste and imagination of the old post office building, which used horses to transport the letters. So much so that the stables have been transformed into a dining room, but it is the new meeting room, ogive lines, full of light, to welcome the meeting and the intense dialogue.
