José Luis González Gullón outlines the historical background to St Josemaría’s arrival in Italy in June 1946. The founder of Opus Dei had two very specific objectives on his agenda. The first was to obtain the “Decretum laudis” (decree of praise) from the Holy See, which would facilitate the spread of Opus Dei throughout the world. The second was to find a place in which to establish the Work’s headquarters.
