76 years after that December 7th 1943, Paolo Balduzzi takes us to Trent to visit some of the significant places of those early days of Chiara and the Focolare community. Today, the city from which everything began is bringing into its civil and social fabric signs and practices derived from a mentality of fraternity that from that city has reached the ends of the earth. https://vimeo.com/378511451

The Pope’s journey to Algeria, Cameroon, Angola and Equatorial Guinea marked a milestone for these nations, from which Leo XIV launched strong messages of peace and solidarity for the African continent and beyond.
Pope Francis passed away a year ago, on Easter Monday 2025. In this brief video we recall a few of the many moments that illustrate his friendship with the Focolare Movement and express the fraternal gaze that accompanied and supported the Focolare community throughout his pontificate.
“I am not a politician; I speak of the Gospel (…) and to the leaders of the world I say: no more wars.” Pope Leo XIV began his journey to Africa with these words, answering journalists aboard the plane en route to his first stop, Algeria. It is a tireless and courageous commitment to peace, one that the Focolare Movement wholeheartedly supports. Peace and interreligious dialogue were recurring themes in many of the testimonies presented to the Pope, including that of the Focolare community.
