The discussion centers around the 95th anniversary of the founding of Opus Dei, a Catholic organization that emphasizes sanctifying ordinary life.

The organization emphasizes prayer, frequent sacraments, and a spirit of service. Opus Dei's approach includes rigorous commitment to prayer and incorporates elements like an hour in front of the Blessed Sacrament, daily Mass, the Rosary, and mortification.
