Economy of Communion Resources

 

The Economy of Communion is a movement begun in 1991 by Chiara Lubich, leader of the Focolare.  It is a movement to use private enterprise not only to help the poor to gain financial freedom and security, but to bring about communion among all people.  Business for the Economy of Communion brings about spiritual and existential transformation through its person and community centered approach.  Below are some resources to help people to learn about the Economy of Communion.
