History
Saint Josemaria Escriva grew up in a devout family. However,
that did not mean things were always easy. Bad things happened to them, but that taught Saint Josemaria to find his joy in the Lord. He became a priest and started an organization to help all people learn
to live holy lives filled with love for God and other people. Throughout his
life, Saint Josemaria always prayed the same prayers his parents and
grandparents taught him when he was a little boy, because they helped him
remember to keep his eyes on Jesus.
Activity

I was born for you,
Dear Jesus, what do you want me to do?” Make sure you pray
