Dialogues
The Focolare spirituality has spread across the globe, inspiring a variety of forms of dialogue. Within the Catholic Church, the Movement engages in dialogue with other movements and new communities. It is also deeply committed to ecumenical dialogue with other Christian Churches and ecclesial communities.
