Bishop Jaime Fuentes, who lived in the same house as St Josemaria Escriva, has written a book about his memories of St Josemaria: in the life of someone who aspires to holiness, the tiniest fact can indeed be sacred.

Time has gone by, and very minor memories have become a real treasure.”Tags:Love of God,Ascetical struggle,Holiness,Josemaria Escriva
