St. Josemaria Escriva in the News
Everyone knows that Opus Dei has not always received a fair shake in the media, think Da Vinci Code, well today seems different then the past. The Times (a Trenton newspaper) ran a story about a 13 week series on EWTN about St. Josemaria Escriva. The show is aptly titled St. Josemaria Escriva and Opus Dei and was filmed entirely in South Orange, NJ. The secular paper gave fair treatment to St. Josemaria/Opus Dei and EWTN - see miracles do still happen! Read their coverage here. The New York Times also ran a positive story some time back about a possible upcoming movie on St. Josemaria. The director made a name for himself with films such as The Mission. Read the article from The Times here.
