Opus Dei

On Wednesday 13 June, Pope Francis began a series of catecheses on the role of the ten commandments in Christian life.

"When Pope Francis declared a Year of Mercy starting in December 2015, it set me thinking about works of mercy. In a meeting with friends to discuss possible projects, someone mentioned how he used to go with a group of volunteers to a prison to attend Sunday Mass there with the prisoners."

Rejoice and be glad a short video summary (2'36''). On April 9 the Vatican released the latest Apostolic Exhortation from Pope Francis: Gaudete et exsultate: On the call to holiness in today’s world.

Some of the bishops celebrating Masses for the feast of Saint Josemaria in the United States this year are Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan of New York; Bishops Edward Burns of Dallas, Brendan J. Cahill of Victoria, Texas; Bishop Richard J. Malone of Buffalo; David Kagan of Bismarck, North Dakota; Bishop Robert Barron, auxiliary bishop of Los Angeles; and Bishop Enrique Delgado, auxiliary bishop of Miami.

Anna Corry, a supernumerary member of Opus Dei, had many messages to pass on before she died of cancer on the 29th of March 2018, in Sydney, Australia.

From May 31st to June 3rd, Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz made a pastoral visit to Sicily. In Palermo, he greeted members of Opus Dei and their friends.

The Holy Father has said many times that he wants to listen to the voices of young people, and he invites them to speak without fear. "Youth Speaking Out" is a new video series, inspired by the upcoming Synod.

We are making a "Mass Kit" available for people who would like to have the feast day Masses celebrated by their priests.

On Saturday May 26, at 10 am, the Holy Father received Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz, Prelate of Opus Dei, in an audience.

For May 2018, the Holy Father Pope Francis requests us to pray that the lay faithful may fulfil their specific mission, by responding with creativity to the challenges that face the world today.
