The Faithful of Opus Dei Who Died During the Second Half of 2019
In the second half of 2019, 541 faithful of the Prelature died and, besides the priests incardinated in it, 20 members of the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross. As we continue to pray for them, let us thank God for the example they left us through their fidelity in striving to transform their professional work—their pastoral ministry in the case of the priests—their family lives, and their social relationships into an occasion for loving God and serving the Church and all souls. Their love for God and neighbor constitutes the meaning and value of their lives, whether outstanding in the eyes of others, or whether quite ordinary, as was true in most cases.
