HIS HOLINESS ARAM I RECEIVES REPRESENTATIVES
OF THE FOCOLARE MOVEMENT
His Holiness Aram I received on Tuesday a delegation from the Focolare
Movement headed by Bishop Armando Bertol. This international Catholic
organization has thousands of members from around the round. Its
headquarters are located in Rome. Established 25 years ago, the organization
aims at contributing to the spread of Christian values and principles
through collective dialogue and activities and to assist deprived
communities.
The purpose of the delegation's visit was to inform the Catholicos of the
conference to be held in Lebanon in September by Focolare and inquire about
his viewpoints in this respect. Being closely acquainted with the movement
and having met several of its leaders in Switzerland, Brazil, the United
States and elsewhere, the Pontiff encouraged its spiritual and humanitarian
work. The Pontiff expressed his readiness to receive the conference
participants in Antelias and to address them.
