​Pope Francis Receives the Prelate in Audience

On November 7 in the morning, the Holy Father received Bishop Javier Echevarría, Prelate of Opus Dei, in an audience.

The Prelate thanked the Pope for the many initiatives and abundant fruit in the Jubilee Year of Mercy that is about to end, and informed him of the ongoing apostolic work of the Prelature.

Bishop Echevarría assured the Holy Father, once again, of the union of the faithful of Opus Dei to his intentions and the daily prayer of each and every one of them for him, as he had a chance to see on his recent trip to Finland and Estonia.

The Holy Father encouraged the Prelature’s faithful to continue working apostolically in all environments and imparted wholeheartedly his blessing to all who take part in the Prelature’s activities.
