Opus Dei

Kindergarten and Primary School. Long gone by years and long forgotten struggles. But these were all brought back to the minds and hearts of a group of young university students from Kenya and Britain during a three week long project.

In the context of the 15th Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops, on the theme "Young people, the faith and vocational discernment" Hillary tells us a bit about himself. He is a recent graduate that joined Opus Dei some months ago. He tells us about his interests and how he discovered his vocation.

Anniversaries are always a great cause and opportunity for celebration. Anniversaries are also a great chance and indeed opportunity for a candid examination of conscience.

Jeremy White is a faithful of Opus Dei who died in Nigeria in 1990 with a reputation for holiness. He was born in Aldershot, England on May 18, 1938. He did a bachelor’s degree in History and Modern languages in Cambridge University. He converted from Anglicanism in 1959. In the same year, he moved to Nairobi, Kenya, to help with the start of Strathmore College. While in Nairobi he asked for admission to Opus Dei. In 1965 he moved to Nigeria to help in the start of Opus Dei activities in that country.

22nd of September there will be a solemn Thanksgiving Mass in Nairobi to celebrate 60 years since Opus Dei started stable work on the continent of Africa, precisely in East Africa. This is Part 3 of a series of articles tracing the history of that divine African adventure.

We're very happy to be celebrating 60 years since the people who started Strathmore came to Africa from United States and Europe and their dream was to start a university.

One of the past chaplains of Strathmore School, during the talk for fathers of young primary boys about to receive their First Holy Communion, was fond of calling their attention to a deep but often overlooked fact.

One day in 2010 my mother called me, very excited. “Lulú, now I know who we have to pray to for a boyfriend for you: Tomás Alvira and Paquita Dominguez!”

Africa's greatest wealth is its young people, who need to have access to education and work possibilities, Pope Francis says in his prayer intention for this month.
