Opus Dei

A 30 min. documentary on the life of Alvaro del Portillo, whom Saint Josemaria called "Saxum," Rock, because of his great faithfulness.

In this Rome Reports video, Bishop Javier Echevarría speaks about working alongside Alvaro del Portillo for over 40 years, and the virtues we can learn from his life of self-giving.

Paula Assen, from Australia, speaks about working alongside Dora del Hoyo and the example she gave of love for God and service to those around her in domestic tasks. "She had a lot of faith in the words of St. Josemaria that we have to create homes in a society that's so much against it. And we have to create a family atmosphere... because a lot of people are deprived of that these days."

Scott Hahn talks about Bishop Alvaro del Portillo, the Statue of Liberty, and the joy of the faith. Bishop del Portillo is the first successor to Opus Dei's founder, Saint Josemaria Escriva, and was declared "Venerable" by Pope Benedict XVI in 2012.

My husband and I have been married almost 6 years. We married fairly young: he was 23 and I was 25. Our greatest desire was to start a family.

My husband and I have a beautiful family. We have eight children and have always tried to teach them to have faith in and love for God.

A few months ago I was trapped in London. A cloud of volcanic ash caused the cancellation of all flights in Europe.
