The Focolare Movement – with members of all ages, present in the 5 continents, in 194 nations, at every level of society, in religious and lay environments, often in challenging situations – together with the whole Church has been involved in evangelization with new urgency and ardour.<\/p>\n
Convinced of the importance of being evangelized so as to be able to evangelize, it pays attention to the formation of its members so they can be light, leaven and salt. \u2018Environmental cells<\/a>\u2019, made up of two or more people in the same place, bring the living presence of the ‘Risen One’ everywhere, into families, factories, places of public administration, hospitals, schools and\u00a0 universities. At the local level, it builds relationships of fraternity inspired by the Gospel through\u00a0 \u2018local communities\u2019 within suburbs and towns.<\/p>\n Following its charism which is the unity Jesus prayed for<\/a> the night before he died (Jn 17:21), the Movement prefers to give a communitarian witness, especially through international days or meetings, the annual gatherings called ‘Mariapolis’ and the Movement\u2019s little towns<\/a> where the law governing all is Jesus\u2019 new commandment of love for one another. The Focolare also uses the press, such as the magazine and publishing house Citt<\/em>\u00e0 Nuova<\/em>, and the new media and social networks.<\/p>\n
