Focolare Movement
Building unity as a life commitment
With All Our Strength
From the meeting of Catholic movements with John Paul II at Pentecost 1998 to the meetings with Christian movements and communities in Stuttgart, the Focolare’s commitment to furthering unity among these groups remains significant.
Her People
One way to see Chiara Lubich is through the many lives she touched. And if there were a North American section of heaven, there she would find a good number to welcome her.
Works of the Work of Mary
Chiara Lubich’s charism of unity generated thousands of initiatives: social programs, publishing activities, schools, towns and even a university.
Thank you, Chiara

Woman, in a New Humanity
Chiara Lubich’s “being woman” grew out of the depth of her experience with God.
States of the Union
From 1964 through 2000, Chiara Lubich made seven trips to the U.S. In the pluralism she found, she saw a potential model of unity for the world.
Going All Over the World
Love for a living crucifix, for Jesus Forsaken in contemporary society, compelled Chiara Lubich to reach out to all.
Life Rules
Chiara Lubich’s legacy includes her finishing touches on the Focolare’s statutes, which capture the characteristics of her new charism.
