Opus Dei

The second commandment prescribes honoring God's name, while the third requires keeping feast days holy.

These two commandments help us to live holy purity (the ninth) and detachment from material goods (the tenth) in our thoughts and desires.

"God is love" (1 Jn 4:8), and his love is fruitful. He wants human beings to share in this fecundity, by linking the procreation of each new person with a specific act of love between a man and a woman.

Opus Dei has around 90,000 members, both men and women. 98% are laypeople, most of whom are married. The remaining 2% are priests.

With the announcement of the date and place for Alvaro del Portillo's beatification, the Prelate of Opus Dei has written a brief letter.

My parents pray for me and my family daily. They are the parents of 7 and grandparents of 32 and great grandparents of 7. They received the prayer card of Don Alvaro from a dear friend.

My husband and I have been married almost 6 years. We married fairly young: he was 23 and I was 25. Our greatest desire was to start a family.

My husband and I have a beautiful family. We have eight children and have always tried to teach them to have faith in and love for God.

A few months ago I was trapped in London. A cloud of volcanic ash caused the cancellation of all flights in Europe.
