Opus Dei

To commemorate the centenary of St. Josemaría's ordination, a video on his priestly vocation was shown in Zaragoza and Rome. It includes fragments of get togethers in which he shared advice with priests, inspiring them to live a holy and fruitful ministry.

To commemorate the hundredth anniversary of Saint Josemaría Escrivá’s ordination to the priesthood, the city of Zaragoza hosted a series of events from 27 to 30 March. These included academic gatherings, liturgical celebrations, and festive family meetings. Similar events took place in Rome and Logroño, locations that played a significant role in the founder of Opus Dei’s life and childhood.

The Josemaría Escrivá Study Center (Centro de Estudios Josemaría Escrivá) has launched a new website featuring interactive tools, including timelines and maps, and articles by historians. Published on the eve of the centenary of the priestly ordination of the founder of Opus Dei, the site offers previously unpublished content on this milestone.

28 March 2025 marks the hundredth anniversary of St. Josemaría’s ordination to the priesthood. Liturgical and academic events have been organized in Zaragoza, Perdiguera, and Rome. We also share a commemorative card, available to download in several languages.

In this short video, St. Josemaría speaks about St. Joseph, our Lord's father and our Lady's husband. "He taught Jesus so many things and protected him when he was a child... How many trials our Lord sent him, and how gently he carried them out!"

Read these counsels slowly. Pause to meditate on these thoughts. They are things that I whisper in your ear—confiding them—as a friend, as a brother, as a father. And they are being heard by God.”

The Catholic prayer app Hallow launches its Lent challenge on Wednesday. This year, it is inspired by the founder of Opus Dei's “The Way.” The global challenge will be guided by well-known figures from around the world.

In this video, St. Josemaría encourages us to live for love every day: “Don’t be ashamed to be a poor, flawed vessel. We will fight all our lives to correct our flaws, right to the end... This is love.”

We asked seven young people to read ‘The Way’ and to choose their favourite points. In this video, Veronica Maria, Michele, Angelica, Giulia, Angelina, Roberto, and Federico tell us why they chose the points they did.
