On May 18, 2019
the first layperson
of Opus Dei was
beatified in Madrid--Guadalupe Ortiz Landazuri

Blessed Guadalupe Ortiz de Landázuri
PRAYER
O God, grant me through the intercession of Blessed Guadalupe that, like her, I may learn to carry out my ordinary work with love, and spread faith and joy to everyone around me, so that many more may come to know you and love you. Deign to grant the canonization of Guadalupe and, through her intercession, grant me the favor I ask of you... (here make your petition). Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be to the Father.

The Prelate of Opus Dei, Monsignor Fernando Ocariz, visited the USA in July 2019!
