Malina, from Malaysia: "Seeing my friends take Communion was the beginning of my journey"

Malina learned to get along with Muslims, atheists and Christians in her own family. "My family is an example of the mix of cultures and religions that exist in my country, Malaysia," she says.

That was the beginning of a search that would eventually lead her to Opus Dei as an assistant numerary.
