Opus Dei

I recently told Dora that if she could get me this one favor, I would write up all the other ones that she's gotten for me as well. Since Dora never lets me down, here I am following suit.

​"Dora: Rozpalony płomień" is the title of Dora del Hoyo's biography in Polish, recently published by Editorial Apostolicum. The book, originally in Spanish and written by Javier Medina Bayo, is now available in five languages. It tells the story of the first woman in Opus Dei to dedicate her life to the work of the home, a woman who is now in process of Canonization.

As a custom, I usually check the Opus Dei website to see if there is any new material I can pray with, or any piece of news to keep me informed. One day I read the news that the Prelate of Opus Dei was asking for testimonies of favors received through the intercession of Dora del Hoyo. I had no idea who Dora del Hoyo even was.

The first issue of the newsletter about the Servant of God Dora del Hoyo is now in print and available for download. Its title is "Dora del Hoyo: A Professional Homemaker."

A new issue of the bulletin for the cause of canonization of Fr. Joseph Muzquiz is now available in both pdf and print format.

I would like to describe a couple favors I've received. The first one was finding 20€ that I thought I had lost, and which appeared under a Dora del Hoyo prayer card. Since then, we've experienced many favors.

A few of the many favors obtained through the intercession of Blessed Alvaro del Portillo in the year since his beatification on September 27, 2014.

I needed to find a presentation that I had prepared the year before in order to give a course of Christian formation. I looked through all the documents saved on my computer, but I couldn't find it. I decided to turn to Dora, and I prayed, "Dear Dora, you know how much I need this presentation - help me find this."

The Archbishop of Pamplona has formally closed the diocesan phase of Laura Busca's process of canonization, uniting it with the canonization cause of her husband, Eduardo Ortiz de Landázuri.
