Opus Dei

Marching to the beat of the prayer intention that the Prelate has proposed for faithful and friends of the Work across the world for the next year, for those in East and Southern Africa, the vicar has proposed a regional prayer intention running until Easter Sunday (9th April) 2023.

The Prelate is suggesting that the faithful and friends of Opus Dei pray for this intention in a special way, from 2 October 2022 to 2 October 2024.

Here is the intention from 2 October 2021 to 2 October 2022, which the Prelate is suggesting to the faithful and friends of Opus Dei.

In his prayer intention for the month of September 2019, Pope Francis invites us to pray that "politicians, scientists and economists work together to protect the world’s seas and oceans."

Let us pray that priests, through the modesty and humility of their lives, commit themselves actively, above all, to solidarity with those who are most poor.

Pope's Prayer Intention for May 2019

Let us pray for doctors and their humanitarian collaborators in war-torn areas, who risk their lives to save the lives of others.

Let us pray that Christian communities, especially those who are persecuted, feel that they are close to Christ and have their rights respected.

Let us pray for a generous welcome of the victims of human trafficking, of enforced prostitution, and of violence.

Let us pray that young people, especially in Latin America, follow the example of Mary and respond to the call of the Lord to communicate the joy of the Gospel to the world.
