Although not perfect, the work of the altar boys improved.

Many Christians have had private recourse to their intercession for their different needs. Here is one such favour.

Opus Dei is a personal prelature of the Catholic Church to which lay people are called – single, married, widowed – to live the greatest commandments of love of God and love of neighbour right there in the middle of their ordinary lives, raising their families, keeping a job and so on. It is therefore not obvious what an article on a nun would be doing featuring here.
