Opus Dei

This Newsletter is dedicated to the teachings of St Josemaria on the family.

This website will broadcast the solemn Mass celebrated by Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz in the Prelatic Church of Our Lady of Peace for the Feast of Saint Josemaria on June 26th at 7:00 pm (GMT+2). The Prelate will offer the Mass for those who have died during the pandemic.

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.

On Tuesday April 7th, a webcam located in the prelatic church of Our Lady of Peace will offer live streaming of the tomb of St. Josemaría, for those who want to prepare for Holy Week praying by his side. Two 45-minute connections will be made, at 11am and 4pm from Rome (GMT+2).

Here's a video about the message of Saint Josemaría and its impact on various people. It is the second in a series of 7 videos explaining some fundamental aspects of the spirit of Opus Dei.

Spring Publications in Hong Kong publishes the writings of St Josemaria in Chinese. Lucia Kwong describes some of their creative initiatives at the annual Hong Kong book fair.

On Saint Josemaria's feast day, Masses are celebrated all over the world... the desert included. In a country that is officially Muslim, populated by over a hundred nationalities, the saint of ordinary life inspires many to keep the fire of their faith alive.

In addition to wars and the refugee crisis, a third element characterizing the migration to the Gulf countries in recent years has been job opportunities. Many foreigners - and in the case of Dubai, more than 70% - have settled there in search of new professional horizons.

Dubai is just one of the seven United Arab Emirates. It’s a place where more than 70% of the population is made up of foreigners. They come from Asia, Europe and America and, affected by the economic crisis in different ways, have abandoned their country to look for new work opportunities. A Muslim country where practicing the Christian faith is a challenge that Christians have been facing for centuries.
