Retreat!
Last weekend, I attended, for the third time, a retreat for men conducted by Opus Dei. (I would be remiss to fail to mention that these retreats were subsidized by my generous and kind father-in-law.) I don’t see much reference to Opus Dei on this blog. You should be aware that Opus Dei is a personal prelature whose founder, St. Josemaria Escriva, was canonized in 2002. The priests of Opus Dei, among other things, conduct monthly Evenings of Recollection for men and women as well as weekend retreats. If you have never heard of the prelature, or if you have only heard negative things said about the Work, you should investigate their website. The mission is to live one’s faith in everyday obligations and to sanctify one’s work. The priests are good, holy men, and Opus Dei is worth checking out.
