Letter from the Prelate (20 February 2021)
At the beginning of Lent, Monsignor Ocariz invites us to seek identification with Christ along the path of poverty reflected in fasting.
"I dream — and the dream has come true — of multitudes of God’s children, sanctifying themselves as ordinary citizens, sharing the ambitions and endeavours of their colleagues and friends.”(Saint Josemaría)
At the beginning of Lent, Monsignor Ocariz invites us to seek identification with Christ along the path of poverty reflected in fasting.
Monsignor Ocáriz invites us to contribute with our prayers to a plan to better spur forward and coordinate the apostolic undertakings of the Prelature.
"The Child Jesus calls us to live with a free heart, a heart detached from the goods of this world and able to discern what is truly important."
On the solemnity of Christ the King, Monsignor Ocáriz invites us to reflect on some words of Saint Josemaria in order to let Christ reign more fully in us.
Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz offers some reflections on the spirit of Opus Dei and how it is lived in accord with each person's circumstances.
Monsignor Ocáriz assures us that he is praying for us and close to us during the pandemic, and says that he will soon send a longer letter.
This 15th of September will mark 45 years since the election of Blessed Alvaro as Saint Josemaria’s first successor. Monsignor Ocáriz encourages us to see him as an example of fidelity to the spirit of Opus Dei.
Faith helps us to discover the good present in every situation, also when they are painful. As Monsignor Ocáriz reminds us, with words of Saint Paul, "in everything God works for good with those who love him.”
In the face of our own vulnerability, Mgr. Ocariz reminds us that Christ knew his disciples’ weaknesses and their past when he chose them, but also knew that the Holy Spirit is stronger than all of that.
On the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Msgr Ocariz invites us to ask Our Lord for a meek and humble heart, where many souls can find rest and consolation.
As the lockdown begins to be lifted in many places, Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz encourages us to show others the attractiveness of being Christ's disciple with our own lives.
With the month of May about to begin, Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz invites us to unite ourselves to the Pope's intentions through recourse to the intercession of our Lady.
