OBS

Communion and Liberation is a movement in the Church which has the purpose of forming its members in Christianity in order to make them coworkers in the Church's mission in all areas of society.

OBS

CL began in 1954 in Italy, at the Berchet classical high school in Milan, when Father Luigi Giussani (1922-2005) started an initiative of Christian presence which uses the pre-existent name Gioventù Studentesca (GS; English: Student Youth). Its current name, Communion and Liberation (CL), appeared for the first time in 1969. This name brings together the conviction that the Christian event, lived in communion, is the foundation of man’s authentic liberation. ... Communion and Liberation is present today in roughly ninety countries on all the inhabited continents, and is guided by Father Julián Carrón, who succeeded Father Giussani after his death in 2005.

OBS

Communion et Libération est un mouvement ecclésial dont le but est l'éducation chrétienne de ses adhérents pour collaborer à la mission de l'Église dans tous les domaines de la société.

OBS

Le Mouvement naît en Italie en 1954, lorsque le père Luigi Giussani (1922-2005), à partir du Lycée «Berchet» de Milan, donne le jour à une initiative de présence chrétienne qui utilise le nom preéxistant Gioventù Studentesca (GS) [Jeunesse étudiante]. Le nom actuel de Communion et Libération (CL) apparaît pour la première fois en 1969. Il exprime la conviction que l'événement chrétien, vécu dans la communion, est le fondement de la libération authentique de l'homme. [...] Actuellement, Communion et Libération est présent dans environ quatre-vingt-dix pays sur tous les continents; il est guidé par le père Julián Carrón, successeur de don Giussani depuis la disparition de ce dernier en 2005.
