Come accostarci alle lectio
La povertà è il “vuoto” che riceve, un “vuoto” capace di ricevere la pienezza e l’Assoluto.
C’è un racconto della notte in cui nacque Gesù che ci spiega ciò molto bene: c’era un pastore poverissimo, così povero che non aveva nulla.
Quando i suoi amici decisero di andare alla grotta portando qualche dono, invitarono anche lui.
Ma lui diceva: “Non posso venire: mi presenterei a mani vuote, che posso dare?” Ma gli altri lo convinsero ad unirsi a loro e così arrivarono dove c’era il Bambino.
Maria la madre, aveva tra le braccia il bambino e sorrideva, vedendo la generosità di chi offriva formaggio, lana o qualche frutto.
Scorse il pastore che non aveva nulla e gli fece cenno di venire.
Questi si fece avanti imbarazzato.
Maria per avere libere le mani e ricevere i doni dei pastori depose dolcemente il Bambino tra le braccia del pastore... che era venuto a mani vuote.
In allego il documento che ci ha accompagnato nell'incontro del 19 agosto 2020.

New Edition of Vita Giuseppina: Murialdian Vocational Education—History, AI, and the Future in the World
Dear readers, In this issue of *Vita Giuseppina* 5-26, we are pleased to share with you a central aspect of the Murialdo charism: the Murialdo-inspired vocational formation of young people and workers. In 19th-century Turin, in the midst of the Industrial Revolution, Leonardo Murialdo—rector of the Artigianelli since 1866—knew how to read the signs of the times. He chose work as the heart of a human and Christian educational journey, pointing to St. Joseph as the educational model to be emulated. Today, in the age of artificial intelligence, new challenges and new questions confront the Church, educational institutions, parents, formators, and the entire Murialdo Family. In this rapidly evolving landscape, Murialdo-style vocational formation for young people and workers remains an indispensable resource for “safeguarding humanity”, promoting the dignity, freedom, and integral growth of every young person. In this issue, we invite you to discover a journey that unites memory, the present, and the future: from the roots of the charism to the stories of concrete testimonies from the CSJ and the FdM in Africa, Albania, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Italy, and Spain. We hope you all enjoy reading this issue, with your eyes turned toward the world and your hearts always anchored in the charism that unites us. The Editorial Staff

MOVIMUR 2026: The Murialdine Schools Network Meets in Porto Alegre
Promoting meetings among young leaders from Murialdo schools is an extraordinary asset for our social and educational work: it enhances networking, encourages the exchange of experiences among students, and strengthens the sense of belonging to a large global family. It was precisely in this spirit that MOVIMUR took place—the annual gathering of student and youth movements within the Murialdo Education Network in Brazil, an event that brings together young people from different schools to experience moments of integration, spirituality, leadership, and sharing. The 7th edition of the event was held in Porto Alegre (Brazil) on September 18 and 19, 2026, hosted at the Colégio Murialdo in Porto Alegre. This year’s event had as its theme “Leadership and Hospitality” and as its motto the Gospel verse “He came to dwell among us” (John 1:14). Along with educational and spiritual activities, the gathering promoted concrete acts of solidarity, such as the traditional fundraising and donation drive for the “Projeto Morro da Cruz,” in support of local communities. At the conclusion of the event, the location of the 8th edition (2027) was announced; it will be hosted by the school of Ana Rech in Caxias do Sul. To view highlights, photos, and videos of the activities, visit the social media profiles and the official Instagram channel of Colégio Murialdo in Porto Alegre.
