Abstract

The article highlights some peculiarities of the spreading process of the Focolare Movement outside of Trento, its place of origin; it then focuses on the first contacts established by the Movement in the Rovereto area. Mainly through unpublished documents,  a relationship emerges between the new ecclesial reality and the Rosminian Fathers. A particular attention will be given to the prudent and far-sighted position of the Rosminian don Carlo Pagani, charged by Msgr. Carlo de Ferrari (archbishop of Trento) to take care of the nascent local Focolare community.
