Opus Dei

The Prelate of Opus Dei invites us during Lent to strive to open our heart generously to God's will.

Mercedes and Concha are sisters, and both are assistant numeraries. After many years of working in the administration of Opus Dei centres, they now dedicate themselves to caring for their brothers, who suffer from spastic paraplegia, and to carrying out apostolic activities in places on the Levantine coast, including Gandía and Alzira. This is a conversation between the two sisters.

Christian unity is a participation in the unity of love among the Persons of the Blessed Trinity. On earth, this unity of love is realized through affective and effective union with the Roman Pontiff. In Opus Dei, as part of the Church, it is also expressed through filiation with the Prelate.

Two specialist institutions launch a new website dedicated to the history of Opus Dei, combining academic rigour with an accessible, multimedia approach.

"This is a way we can look at Lent: It is an invitation to pause, to pull ourselves away from the busyness of life, at least internally." An audio meditation to inspire your conversation with God at the beginning of Lent.

"When I look back on these blessings, I realise my role is so simple and small, but somehow also very crucial in God’s mind and his plan. All I have to do is my little bit..."
