Wishing you a Happy and Holy Easter

Mar 31, 2018

“Christ is our hope”. Greetings from Maria Voce, President of the Focolare Movement.
Today more than ever, while new conflicts are starting in various parts of the world, and tragic events of all kinds make our hopes for peace seem vain, we want to affirm our faith in the Man-God, who died and rose again for all people, and to lead the world to its destiny of unity. He is our hope and our joy. I send Easter greetings to all of you, personally and on behalf of the Focolare Movement. I pray that the spirit of the Risen Lord be born and reborn every day in us and amongst us, according to Jesus’ promise, “For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them” (Mt 18:20). Happy Easter everyone!

Maria Voce

Here is a testimony from Congo, in Africa.

What is needed is “an authentic ecological conversion” that comes from the heart.
