Opus Dei Prelate U. S. Visit
I didn’t realize how many pictures and video clips there are on the Opus Dei website now. When the Prelate, Bishop Javier Echevarría, recently visited the United States a lot of pictures were taken like this one in Houston. He had an inspiring message which you can watch in video clips you’ll find in this section of the Opus Dei website.
In his latest letter the Prelate writes of Advent, “During this liturgical time, the Church urges us to consider the end of time, when Christ will come in the splendor of his glory to judge all men, and to prepare ourselves to remember his temporal birth, now twenty centuries ago.
The two comings are intimately related. In the first, divine mercy is especially evident; in the final one, his justice will be clearly seen. But both are a manifestation of God’s love for man, as St. Paul teaches: “For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all men, training us to renounce irreligion and worldly passions, and to live sober, upright, and godly lives in this world, awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds” (Titus 2:11-14).”
