What does God’s voice sound like when He calls young people today?

There are as many answers to that question as there are people. He speaks through the dreams and aspirations that inspire us, the provocative questions that knock us out of our usual routines, and the gift of peace that makes us confident we’re on the right path.

In this video series, young people from Australia, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and the United States share how they discovered their vocation to Opus Dei. Every story is different, but they all have something in common: the certainty that God still calls us today, in the middle of ordinary life, with words we can always hear in the depths of our hearts.

I've always been someone who enjoys life a lot. I like to do sports, I like music, I love spending time with my friends, “my people.” But after living in several cities, I've realized that what's most important and what I value the most is each person. And the fact that we have a family as well.

I studied psychology in college. I've studied a lot about human behavior and what a person is... And with my work, I seek to create a connection between those people and make them feel part of something. Making sure they feel like family, not living in isolation, but at ease, themselves, in this family. 

I also like to compare it with music, because a single note could sound by itself and that’s it… But what I’d like to do through my work is help each note feel connected with the others, forming a symphony. I want to create that sense of family; I want people to feel at home in this family. And specifically in the Work, to feel like family within Opus Dei.

Ultimately, I think that’s what makes people happy.
