1974 - Visit to Peru

The founder of Opus Dei, and of the University of Piura, today Saint Josemaría Escrivá, visited the country, whose liturgical feast we celebrate on June 26, since when he was canonized (2002). It was a decisive year for many, for hundreds of Peruvians who were able to see and hear it; and now they can remember him and treat him as if they saw him, even though he is in heaven and we are on earth.
