Opus Dei

At the beginning of Lent, Monsignor Ocariz invites us to seek identification with Christ along the path of poverty reflected in fasting.

Monsignor Ocáriz invites us to contribute with our prayers to a plan to better spur forward and coordinate the apostolic undertakings of the Prelature.

"The Child Jesus calls us to live with a free heart, a heart detached from the goods of this world and able to discern what is truly important."

A meditation by the Prelate of Opus Dei about the season of Advent and the feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary Most Holy.

Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz offers some reflections on the spirit of Opus Dei and how it is lived in accord with each person's circumstances.

On the solemnity of Christ the King, Monsignor Ocáriz invites us to reflect on some words of Saint Josemaria in order to let Christ reign more fully in us.

Monsignor Ocáriz assures us that he is praying for us and close to us during the pandemic, and says that he will soon send a longer letter.

This 15th of September will mark 45 years since the election of Blessed Alvaro as Saint Josemaria’s first successor. Monsignor Ocáriz encourages us to see him as an example of fidelity to the spirit of Opus Dei.

Faith helps us to discover the good present in every situation, also when they are painful. As Monsignor Ocáriz reminds us, with words of Saint Paul, "in everything God works for good with those who love him.”

Faced with the experience of our own vulnerability, Monsignor Ocáriz reminds us that Christ chose his disciples knowing very well their weaknesses and past mistakes, but also knowing that they would have the strength of the Holy Spirit to assist them.
