Focolare Movement International Events

The Focolare Movement is an international organization operating in 182 countries and which promotes the spirituality of unity.  The organization was founded in 1943 by Chiara Lubich in Trent, northern Italy.  The word “Focolare” is Italian for “hearth” or “family fireside”.

During Jubilee 2025, millions of pilgrims from around the world came to Rome. The Focolare Movement welcomed those interested in visiting its International Centre and other significant places linked to its history and spirituality.  Individual pilgrims and organised groups visited the Focolare International Centre in Rocca di Papa, approximately 10 kilometres from Rome. The Centre houses the chapel containing the tomb of Chiara Lubich, founder of the Focolare Movement, as well as those of the two co-founders, Igino Giordani and Fr. Pasquale Foresi. Pilgrims were also able to visit the house where Chiara Lubich had lived and to meet members of the Movement from various vocations, with visits tailored to the interests of each group.
