Opus Dei

Making a pilgrimage to Our Lady in May has a long history in the Church. This year, although we may not be able to travel physically to these places, we can still do so in our hearts... and with a little help from technology.

The day of recollection is a time for prayer and reflection on some topics of our spiritual life.

"Joseph’s work was not self‑centred, even though his active life made him a strong and forceful personality." A homily by Saint Josemaria given on the feast of Saint Joseph, on 19 March 1963 and published in "Christ is Passing By."

On the feast of St. Joseph the Worker and International Workers’ Day in Europe, "Aleteia" has published an article by Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz about the true meaning of work as service to others.

In his Wednesday audience on 29 April, Pope Francis concluded his catechesis on the beatitudes by offering reflections on the last one.

Pope Francis invites everyone to pray the Rosary with special devotion during the month of May, and offers two prayers to our Lady that can be recited after the Litany.

With the month of May about to begin, Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz invites us to unite ourselves to the Pope's intentions through recourse to the intercession of our Lady.

In a video message for all the faithful just before Holy Week, Pope Francis encouraged us to infuse our actions with "the creativity of love," a quality especially crucial during the current health emergency.

April 23rd is World Book Day. Here is a list of some worthwhile books, with a link to an online library of good books for spiritual reading.

The language of prayer is mysterious. We cannot control it, but little by little by persevering in prayer we find that God changes our heart.
