Opus Dei

With the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ approaching, we offer a video of Saint Josemaria in which he speaks about Christ's real presence in the Eucharist.

St. Josemaría tells us that we need to be aware we are a temple for the Blessed Trinity when we walk down the street, or are at work or at home.

During his catechesis in Spain in 1972, St Josemaria spoke of the importance of the Holy Mass and the ministerial priesthood.
