Opus Dei

On 28 November 1982, Pope John Paul II erected Opus Dei as a personal prelature through the Apostolic Constitution "Ut sit," which was delivered to Blessed Alvaro del Portillo (the first Prelate of Opus Dei) on 19 March 1983.

This morning, 29 faithful of Opus Dei received the diaconate from the hands of Monsignor Andrés Gabriel Ferrada, Secretary of the Dicastery for the Clergy.

Some questions and answers: what are the regional assemblies, or work weeks, of Opus Dei? When did they begin? What do the regional assemblies have to do with the centenary of Opus Dei? How does one participate?

The 75th issue of "Romana," bulletin of the Prelature of Opus Dei, from the second semester of 2022, has been published.
