philothea Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I always carry a copy of [i]The Way[/i] in my purse (it's a small book). It has been very useful at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][snapback]849929[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Properly speaking, that would be viewed as a mortification, much like taking a cold shower.

Era Might Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I was thumbing through John Allen's book on Opus Dei, and he told a story about the original class of Opus Dei Priests (there were three of them). St. Josemaria suggested one of them take up smoking, to emphasize that the OD apostolate is in the world. So one of them did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam42 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 The book by Mr. Allen is quite fair. It has a slight bias, but it is not unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjtina Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 it reminds me alot of Miles Jesu, which is very dear to me since I have a friend in Miles Jesu. That's another order that is just.......saints and prayer warriors in the making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photosynthesis Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 [quote name='Extra ecclesiam nulla salus' date='Jan 8 2006, 09:34 PM']I would love to be in opus dei eventually.

Maybe I just need a bigger purse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photosynthesis Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 they used to hear confessions @ Immaculate Conception.. I think they live in DC but I know they have a women's night of recollection on the 1st monday in every month. I'm not sure what they have in the way of men's groups though.

I know they have it other places, but with my family's financial situation, the only way I can order online is using a giftcard, such as that from Wal-Mart.
