A well applied spirituality accesible to everyone

Excerpts from Independent Catholic News



"The most effective leadership in faith always begins by personal example" a leading Vatican bishop told a packed congregation in Westminster Cathedral on Tuesday May 12th 2015.

Preaching at the first ever Mass for the feast of Blessed Alvaro del Portillo, who was beatified last September, Archbishop Arthur Roche said that God's extraordinary power, manifested through the silent processes of nature, most reveals itself in the hidden work of sanctifying human souls. He described sanctity as the "secret force that transforms the world".

....

"The one thing I have readily noticed in the members of Opus Dei,", said the Archbishop, "and I say this, as an outsider, is the natural way in which you relate everything to God and his providence, not least in difficult and trying times." He recommended this as "a well applied spirituality accessible to everyone."
