Prayer Card of Guadalupe Ortiz de Landazuri

Guadalupe Ortiz de Landazuri will be the first lay member of Opus Dei to be beatified.

The Venerable Guadalupe Ortiz de Landazuri was like any ordinary person in her lifetime (1916-1975). But she made ordinary life wonderfully extraordinary for herself and the persons around her by her happy spirit and her kindhearted service to all those she came in contact with. She will be beatified in Madrid, Spain on May 18, 2019.

A chemist and a teacher, Guadalupe was one of the first women who joined Opus Dei and helped its founder, St Josemaría Escrivá de Balaguer, in spreading the message that all Christians are called to be holy right there in their daily life and work.

“This event in the Church will help underline how a life of service to God and others, including the most needy, can be filled with joy and meaning, as we see through Guadalupe’s life. She knew how to find God in the daily efforts of her scientific research and teaching; in the various tasks of formation and government that St Josemaría entrusted to her; and in her illness, which she bore with a strong Christian spirit.” (Msgr. Fernando Ocariz, Prelate of Opus Dei)
