Opus Dei

17 May 2024 is the anniversary of the Beatification of Josemaría Escrivá (1992)

A multimedia site with a variety of audiovisual and infographic resources that show how the charism of Opus Dei has been brought to life in different cultures, for the 50th anniversary of St. Josemaría's trip to several Latin American countries from May 1974 to February 1975.

With the feast of Pentecost drawing near, the Prelate of Opus Dei encourages us to reflect on the action of the Holy Spirit in our souls. And to continue praying for the work on the Statutes.

In his 15 May general audience, Pope Francis continued his catechetical cycle on vices and virtues, speaking about hope.

Saint Josemaría is the first pilgrim to Fatima raised to the altars. The story of Fatima as it impacted his life, and also the life of Saint John Paul II.

In April 1934, Saint Josemaría composed a prayer to the Holy Spirit that he prayed frequently and encouraged others to pray.

The 12th of this month, the second Sunday of May, we'll be celebrating mothers on that annual celebration of Mothers' Day. Let’s look at the way Jesus praised his mother.

Josemaría was a young person like any of us. He had a family and friends, dreams and doubts, fears and aspirations. When he took his faith more and more seriously, God showed him how he could improve the world and help others by being himself, with all his virtues and all his weaknesses.

Many years ago, I heard someone pray this prayer: “O Jesus, remove the unclean scab of sensual corruption that covers my heart, so that I can feel and readily follow the breath of the Paraclete in my soul.” These words can help us understand how God wants us to celebrate the feast of Pentecost that this year falls on Sunday 19th May.

In his 8 May general audience, Pope Francis continued his catechetical cycle on vices and virtues, speaking about hope.
