OPUS.WORKING ******* WORKING FOR GOD THE WORLD OVER What is Opus Dei? by Russell Shaw INSIDE FRONT COVER: "...God is calling you to serve Him in and from the ordinary, material, and secular activities of human life. He waits for us every day in the laboratory, in the operating theater, in the army barracks, in the university chair, in the factory, in the workshop, in the fields, in the home and in the immense panorama of work. Understand this well: there is something holy, something divine, hidden in the most ordinary situations, and it is up to each one of you to discover it" - Msgr. Escriva at a homily given at the University of Navarre, October 8, 1967 WORKING FOR GOD THE WORLD OVER What is Opus Dei? by Russell Shaw PHOTO CAPTION: In 1967, Opus Dei's founder, Msgr. Escriva, preached the homily "Passionately Loving the World" at this open-air Mass at the University of Navarre in Pamplona, Spain. It began with a man, a call, and bells. The man was a young Spanish priest named Josemaria Escriva de Balaguer. As early as 1917, when he was a teenager, he'd come to understand that God wanted something special of him. In fact, he later explained, it was that which led him into the priesthood. But what did God want? On October 2,1928, he was pondering that question, as he'd often done, while making a retreat in Madrid. Suddenly, while bells pealed in a nearby church, it became clear: God made him see Opus Dei. An institution which, as he put it, was to "tell men and women of every country and of every condition, race, language, milieu, and state of life...that they can love and serve God without giving up their ordinary work, their family life, and their normal social relations" Opus Dei - the Work of God. Today it numbers well over 70,000 members representing more than 80 nationalities. It has been praised by popes, prelates, ordinary Christian - and thousands of non-Christians as well. It has brought new insight and encouragement to countless men and women striving to live their Christian vocations in the world. But none of that was so at the start. The Beginnings At the start, Monsignor Escriva was fond of recalling, he had "my 26 years, God's grace, a good sense of humor, and nothing else" "But just as men write with a pen" he would add, "Our Lord writes with the leg of a table to make it clear that it is He who is doing the writing" Gradually the youthful priest gathered a few young men with whom he shared his vision. In 1930 he saw that God wanted Opus Dei to extend to women as well. Thus its women's branch was founded. But growth came slowly, and both the Spanish civil war (1936-1939) and the Second World War (1939-1945) made expansion difficult. Still, efforts continued. By 1940 Opus Dei had between 300 and 400 members. During the Second World War it spread to Italy, then to Portugal, Ireland and England. It received its first recognition by the Holy See in 1943, and in 1946 Monsignor Escriva moved to Rome. (International headquarters are now located there at 73 Viale Bruno Buozzi.) In the late 1940s and early 1950s the Work was introduced into Mexico, West Germany, France and most of Latin America. It came to the United States in 1949 and to Canada in 1958. Meanwhile it has continued to grow in Latin America and Western Europe, while spreading also to Kenya, Nigeria, the Ivory Coast, Zaire, the Philippines, Japan, Australia, Singapore and Hong Kong.

PHOTO CAPTION: Torreciudad, this beautiful new shrine to the Mother of God was the initiative of Opus Dei's founder. It was built near the site of an ancient Marian hermitage in the vicinity of the Spanish Pyrenees. How does it grow? Certainly not by legislative decree. To be sure, Opus Dei establishes a corporate presence nowhere without the permission of local Church authorities, but its actual growth in all cases is due above all to three things: * the efforts of individual members and supporters * the generous response of other individuals when they hear about Opus Dei * and - especially - the action of God's grace. Monsignor Escriva died in Rome on June 26,1975. Since then there have been innumerable testimonials to his achievement. Pope John Paul II has called him "an unforgettable figure" One of the most incisive analyses of his spiritual legacy was written by Cardinal Albino Luciani of Venice, shortly before he was elected Pope John Paul I. Describing Monsignor Escriva as "a revolutionary priest... vaulting over traditional barriers" he compared the founder of Opus Dei to St. Francis de Sales as a master of the spiritual life. A Spirituality of Work "St. Francis," he wrote, "proclaimed sanctity for everyone, but seems to have taught only a 'spirituality for lay people,' whereas Monsignor Escriva wants a 'lay spirituality.' Francis, in other words, nearly always suggests for the laity some practical means used by religious, but with suitable modifications. Escriva is more radical; he goes so far as to talk about 'materializing', in the good sense, that quest for holiness. For him, it is the material work which must be turned into prayer and sanctity." Urged by petitions from 69 cardinals and some 1,300 bishops, along with many other persons, the formal process directed to the possible beatification of Monsignor Escriva began in 1981. The beatification processes of two other members of Opus Dei (Isidoro Zorzano, an Argentinean engineer who died in 1943, and Montserrat Grases, a young Spanish girl who died in 1959) are also underway. There is nothing complicated or obscure about the purpose which Opus Dei has in view - sanctity and apostolate in and through one's ordinary work, using the traditional practices of the interior life. What is new is that Opus Dei encourages ordinary lay people living in the world to aspire to heroic sanctity without changing their state of life or occupations. PHOTO CAPTION: This architecture class at a center of Opus Dei in Caracas Venezuela provides ample opportunities to "put love in the little things" - so often recommended by the founder. An Open Book The very ordinariness of the members of Opus Dei - the fact that they don't look or act or speak differently from anyone else (because in fact they aren't different) - has been interpreted by some as reflecting a penchant for secrecy. But while members of Opus Dei do not advertise their membership, neither do they conceal it. As one expressed it, "We never hide what we are or what we do, but we don't carry a sign saying that we are good Christians or want to be." In any case, Opus Dei's spirit, purposes and program are, both literally and figuratively, an open book: they can be seen in the writings of its founder and the lives of its members. Perhaps the best-known book by Monsignor Escriva is "The Way". It is regarded by many as a spiritual classic, with some three million copies in 35 languages published to date. Several other works by him - collections of homilies and meditations - are also available in English. PHOTO CAPTION: College students, young professionals and others around the world spend some of their vacations at Opus Dei conference centers like Arnold Hall in E. Pembroke, Massachusetts, studying philosophy and theology to complement their academic studies. "Don't let your life be sterile," "The Way" begins. That could serve as a motto for the organization. Opus Dei urges people to be useful, be of service, carry on an active apostolate in and to the world. This spirit has been called a "naive success ethic," but it isn't. Opus Dei does not aim at routine success but at sanctity. Says The Way: "I'll tell you a secret, an open secret: these world crises are crises of saints. God wants a handful of people 'of his own' in every human activity. Then . . . pax Christi in regno Christi - 'the peace of Christ in the kingdom of Christ'." While Opus Dei is people far more than it is institutions, there are a certain number of institutions conducted by members on their own initiative, which in one way or another embody the spirit and purposes of the organization. Although these institutions - universities, schools, study centers, student residences, conference centers, and professional or vocational training institutes of various kinds - have an apostolic purpose, they are not officially "Catholic" since members of Opus Dei conduct them on their own and in collaboration with others who are not only not members of Opus Dei but, in many cases, not even Catholics. Opus Dei itself takes responsibility only for the spiritual and doctrinal aspects of the programs of these institutions, not for their practical and professional management. But institutions aren't the measure of Opus Dei. Nor does it seek to substitute for anything else - to be a replacement for any other group or program. It has a unique role to play and a specific focus - on individual people and their formation and motivation to strive for sanctity and carry on apostolate wherever they live and work.

Members of All Kind People of all kinds belong to Opus Dei: priests and lay people, men and women, young and old, married and single, of every occupation and profession. Most members are married and have families. A relatively small number of members, both men and women, make a commitment to celibacy and thus have more time and availability to provide formation for the other members and staff the various apostolic activities. Some single members are ordained as priests after years of professional work and special studies to prepare for the priesthood. They make up about 2% of the membership and are, properly speaking, "priests of Opus Dei." Other secular priests can also have access to the specific spirituality of Opus Dei by receiving personal spiritual guidance and participating in such exercises as retreats and days of recollection. Some in fact join what is called the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross, which is integrally united to Opus Dei. In doing so, however, they remain priests of their own dioceses, with their own bishops as their superiors. Like any other secular priests, they follow all the indications given by their bishops for the running of the diocese and for the collective spiritual direction of priests; what they receive from Opus Dei, not in place of but in addition to this formation, is help and guidance in seeking holiness in carrying out their ministry. In addition to the members of Opus Dei and the priests associated with the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross, there are also "cooperators" who help through their prayers, work and financial assistance. In return, they benefit from the prayers of members and other spiritual helps. If they wish, they can participate in various formational activities. Non-Catholics as well as Catholics can be cooperators. (Opus Dei was the first Church institution to admit non-Catholic cooperators.)

Photo credit: L'Osservatore Romano/Arturo Mari A Vocation Why do people join? The answer is that they receive a vocation from God. Usually, an individual was impressed by someone already a member, to the point that membership began to seem like an attractive possibility for him or her, too. The criteria for membership aren't income, education, social status, race or similar considerations. They are, instead, the conviction, shared by the directors of Opus Dei, that one has this vocation and the accompanying determination to live according to the spirit and program of Opus Dei. That determination is concretized by means of a contractual commitment which spells out the rights and obligations which members of Opus Dei assume. Opus Dei observes canonical and common-sense requirements regarding commitment and vocation . The earliest age at which an individual can formally apply for membership is sixteen-and-a-half. But, someone applying at that age may not make even a temporarily binding commitment until he or she is 18. Before that, a contract would not be valid, in accord with the general provision of Canon Law. Moreover, no lifetime commitment can be made earlier than age 23.

PHOTO CAPTION: The Prelature of Opus Dei helps provide catechism instruction all over the world. Here a woman in Guadala- jara, Mexico, instructs a young group in the basics of Catholic faith. When and how parents are consulted depends on individual circumstances. But parents are, naturally, always aware of their children's growing interest in Opus Dei, and Opus Dei itself encourages parental involvement before as well as after a vocational commitment is made. (In not a few cases, too, mother, father, and one or more children of the same family are all members of the Work.) To a great extent, the Opus Dei program can be summed up in four words: vocation, work, apostolate, and formation. Despite the different forms of membership and the differences in function and lifestyle which they entail, members believe they all share essentially the same vocation. This concept of a calling is central to Opus Dei, and its idea of vocation focuses especially on work. "Make no mistake about it," Monsignor Escriva once said, "Man's duty to work is not a consequence of original sin, nor is it just a discovery of modern times. It is an indispensable means which God has entrusted to us here on this earth. It is meant to fill out our days and make us sharers in God's creative power" Another time he told a journalist: "In God's service there are no second-class jobs. All of them are important... Sanctity, for the vast majority of men, implies sanctifying their work, sanctifying themselves in it, and sanctifying others through it" PHOTO CAPTION: Students at the Heights School in Potomac, Maryland, celebrate a soccer triumph. Founded in 1969 by several Opus Dei members and others, it has become a fine boys' school in the Washington, D.C. area. Apostolate Work and the round of everyday activities provide the context of apostolate for the ordinary lay person. As Opus Dei sees it, apostolate is simply the natural response of a person trying to live as a Christian and help others around him do the same. Monsignor Escriva expressed it this way: "Whoever said that to speak about Christ and to spread His doctrine, you need to do anything unusual or remarkable? Just live your ordinary life; work at your job, trying to fulfill the duties of your state in life... be loyal; be understanding with others and demanding on yourself. Be mortified and cheerful. This will be your apostolate." In practice, this means helping other people - both by responding to their ordinary human needs for friendship, encouragement, and support, and also, where possible and appropriate, urging them to persist or go deeper in their own struggle to know God's will for them and observe it more faithfully. It isn't a sense of superiority which causes members to act in this way but something quite different. As one expressed it: "It would be absolutely false to imagine I joined Opus Dei, solved all my problems, and then set out to help everybody else solve theirs. I want to become a saint, but I'm not one yet. The difference Opus Dei makes is that I now have a new source of encouragement in trying to cope with my weaknesses - including picking myself up and starting over when I blow it - and for giving others a hand" PHOTO CAPTION: This medical dispensary at Toshi, a conference center of Opus Dei near Mexico City, reflects the concern of ordinary Christians for the bodily, as well as the spiritual health of their neighbors. Spiritual Life Opus Dei's program of formation for this enterprise is demanding but not remarkable, composed as it is of traditional elements of Catholic piety and doctrine according to the letter and spirit of Vatican Council II. The spiritual elements include daily Mass and Communion, frequent reception of the sacrament of Penance, Scripture and spiritual reading, mental prayer, the Rosary, etc. Small acts of mortification and penance are encouraged in line with traditional Christian ascetical practice. There is an emphasis on devotion to the Blessed Virgin and St. Joseph and on loyalty to the Pope and bishops. Members are urged to deepen their knowledge of Christian doctrine through courses, lectures, and systematic study and reading of sound books by orthodox writers. The program is undoubtedly time-consuming, but members find the time for it because they recognize it as essential to living out their freely chosen commitment. As one said, "If there are shortcuts to establishing and maintaining a relationship with the Lord, I don't know what they are. Furthermore, Opus Dei puts a lot of stress on order and the good use of time. When you get the hang of it, you find that you have time for what the Work asks of you and for a lot else besides, because you don't waste time as you used to do. The basic purpose of it all is nothing more and nothing less than to help you live your whole day in the presence of God" Freedom in Temporal Matters Some years ago, at a time when several members held posts in the Spanish government, some people spread the story that Opus Dei aimed to manipulate public policy by placing people in key positions. Trite as that's become, the same thing is still occasionally said today. But it overlooks two basic realities - the exclusively spiritual and altogether apolitical purposes of Opus Dei and the unqualified respect which the organization has for the freedom of its individual members. The view remains that of Monsignor Escriva, who, congratulated on one occasion by a well meaning individual over the important position held by one of those Spanish government ministers, replied, "What does it matter to me whether he is a minister of state or a street sweeper? What I am interested in is that he sanctify himself in his work." As one might expect from that, Opus Dei has no views of its own on politics, economics, and similar matters, and no concern for the views of its individual members, as long as they are consistent with Catholic doctrine. PHOTO CAPTION: Oakcrest School for girls (Washington, D.C.) is under Opus Dei's spiritual direction. Students participate in a broad program of community services: teaching catechism in inner-city parishes, volunteering at nursing homes, etc. Ahead of Its Time Ideas like lay initiative and sanctity in the world were avant-garde novelties when Opus Dei began, but, especially since Vatican Council II, they've come to be widely appreciated. The universal call to holiness, for example, is a major theme of the Council's Constitution on the Church; the Decree on the Apostolate of Lay People stresses the laity's role; the Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World underscores the importance of the secular order and the Christian's mission there. Times may be catching up with the vision Josemaria Escriva had in 1928. It wasn't always so. "You have come a century too soon" a ranking Vatican prelate told Monsignor Escriva when he first brought Opus Dei to Rome in 1946. Church law then lacked a category for Opus Dei. PHOTO CAPTION: Swiss college students follow a lecture at Studentenheim Fluntern, a student residence in Zurich whose spiritual direction is provided by the Prelature. PHOTO CAPTION: Msgr. Alvaro del Portillo, shown here with His Holiness Pope John Paul II, was named the first prelate of Opus Dei on November 28,1982. He had spent 40 years at the side of Opus Dei's founder, as his chief aide. "Your institution has as its aim the sanctification of one's life, while remaining within the world at one's place of work and profession: to live the Gospel in the world, while living immersed in the world, but in order to transform it.... "This is truly a great ideal, which right from the beginning has anticipated the theology of the lay state, which is a characteristic of the Church of the Council and after the Council.... "What could be more beautiful and exciting than this ideal? . . . May you always be blessed and encouraged in this intention of yours" -Pope John Paul II to a group of Opus Dei members August, 1979 The First Personal Prelature It was left to the Second Vatican Council to find the solution. Lay spirituality and lay apostolate were not its invention, but something else was - the personal prelature. According to Vatican II, a personal prelature is a jurisdictional structure in the Church which is not territorial, as a diocese is, but "personal" in the sense that it affects particular persons. Opus Dei received this status in 1982 by decision of Pope John Paul II, the first institution in the Church to do so. Rather than being cut off from their dioceses under the new arrangement, lay members of the prelature - that is, members of Opus Dei - remain ordinary faithful in the dioceses in which they live and work. As a Declaration of the Sacred Congregation for Bishops dated August 23,1982, explains, the lay members of Opus Dei "are under the jurisdiction of the prelate [at present, Monsignor Alvaro del Portillo, who was one of Monsignor Escriva's earliest and closest collaborators and who succeeded him at the head of Opus Dei upon his death in 1975] in regard to what has to do with the fulfillment of the specific ascetic, formative and apostolic commitments, which they have freely undertaken by means of the contractual bond dedicating them to the service of the aims of the prelature" It is "an ordinary power of jurisdiction or government, limited to that which refers to the specific finality of the prelature, and differs substantially, by reason of the matter involved, from the jurisdiction of the diocesan bishops in the ordinary care of the faithful" Diverse in education, temperament, occupation, politics, and virtually everything else, members of Opus Dei nevertheless agree on this: Here they find an exciting vehicle for spiritual growth which gives a new dimension to work, study, family life, recreation, friendship, and all they do. Why do people join and why do they stay: "Because they want to," Monsignor del Portillo explains. "The grace of God and their freedom are all that keep them in Opus Dei." Members grasp what Vatican Council II, in developing the Church's teaching, had in mind in saying lay people should "endeavor to have the gospel spirit permeate and improve the temporal order." Despite the weaknesses and limitations they share in abundance with everybody else, they know that the Council's proclamation of a "universal call to holiness" is neither theory nor mere rhetoric but a mandate for every Christian in every walk of life. As Monsignor Escriva once said: "God is calling you to serve Him in and from the ordinary, material, and secular activities of human life. He waits for us every day - in the laboratory, in the operating theater, in the army barracks, in the university chair, in the factory, in the workshop, in the fields, in the home, and in all the immense panorama of work. Understand this well. There is something holy, something divine, hidden in the most ordinary situations, and it is up to each of you to discover it."

The works which he leaves behind him are a living tribute to his years of loving service to God and to all members of his family on earth" - Cardinal Terence Cooke Archbishop of New York "Msgr. Escriva, with Gospel in hand, constantly taught: God does not want us simply to be good ...he wants us to be saints, through and through. However, he wants us to attain that sanctity not by doing extraordinary things, but rather through ordinary common activities. It is the way they are done which must be uncommon. There, in the middle of the street, in the office, in the factory, we can be holy, provided we do our job competently, for love of God and cheerfully... Faith and competent work go hand in hand for Msgr. Escriva. They are the two wings of sanctity" - Cardinal Albino Luciani (later, Pope John Paul l) "I wish you who are Opus Dei become ever more Opus Dei, and take Opus Dei in every direction of the human and created world....

" "The members of Opus Dei now seem to represent, for John Paul, an ideal for today's lay church member... " Jonathan Spivak, correspondent for The Wall Street Journal (Dec. 30, 1982): "Opus Dei's influence comes not only from John Paul's personal preference for the organiza- tion but also from the roots it has sunk deeply around the world. It operates in scores of countries and... has earned an enviable reputation for... the dedication of its members" Paul Johnson, author of Pope John Paul II and the Catholic Restoration (1981): (Pope John Paul) "has had many dealings with Opus Dei members... He knows a lot about its work and on balance he strongly approves of it.... In his view, Escriva had the right combination: a robust adherence to the traditional dogmas and moral standards of Catholicism, together with the missionary zeal to apply them in the modern world" "On the face of it, Opus Dei appears to be the kind of instrument John Paul needs to assist him in carrying through his restoration on a perma- nent basis: orthodox, loyal, dedicated, superbly organized, and disciplined, ubiquitous, and youthful....He detects in Opus Dei some highly unfashionable merits" Design: Gary Patrick Stone, Milwaukee,WI Typography: Schmitz Typographers, Inc., Milwaukee,WI Printing: Sells Printing Company, Milwaukee,WI Copyright - 1985 U.S. Information Office of Opus Dei
