"I spent a wonderful week in Texas traveling across Houston, San Antonio, Temple, and Dallas, where I visited the local Focolare communities and had the opportunity of spending quality time with old and new friends. It was a joy to present our ministry and resources. Seeing the spirituality of unity at work at a local level is a transformative experience. So many stories of radical love, of lived Gospel. Our mission is to enkindle the spirituality of unity, but I was the one enkindled by so many beautiful encounters."
