Opus Dei

Carlos and Marita have given their children everything they need... but not necessarily everything that they ask for. With fatherly and motherly pedagogy, they've shown their children how to be the protagaonists of their own happiness, teaching them to cover their own expenses, to know how to save, to not be carried away by the latest trends, etc. Living counter culturally has produced its fruits: their children take care of their possessions and are grateful for the brothers and sisters they have.

The D´Orville brothers live in Puerto Rico and are very different: Francisco is talkative, and Jonnatan is reflective; what one likes, the other doesn't. One day, Francisco invited Jonnatan to participate in a recollection, but he didn't attend because it was an invitation from his brother. Now, however, they've both grown closer to God, and they run a catechism course for friends and a youth club for their children together. Their sense of mission brought them together.
