Letter from the Prelate (15 December 2025)
The Prelate of Opus Dei encourages us to contemplate the humility of the Child Jesus during the Christmas season, welcoming everyone with a merciful heart and assisting those in need with specific deeds, as a sign of hope and peace for the world.
Why do we celebrate Christmas?
Was Jesus really born on December 25th? Were the Three Kings historical figures? What do we know about what really happened on the first Christmas?
What is Advent?
Advent is the liturgical season before Christmas, in which the Church prepares to celebrate Christ's birth. This article responds to some common questions about the origin, meaning, and customs of Advent.
Topic 12: The Incarnation
Jesus is the only Son of God who became man for our salvation. He is perfect God and perfect man. He took on our material and bodily condition, subject to many needs, in order to save us from our sins. Mary is truly the Mother of God because the One she conceived as man, through the work of the Holy Spirit, is the eternal Son of the Father.
🎄 Christmas Greeting from the Prelate of Opus Dei (2025)
“We have a great mission: to transmit true peace, which is Jesus Christ.” With these words, Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz invites us to live Christmas by sharing the immense and extraordinary message of the Gospel: the love of God who becomes small in order to come very close to each person.
