“I haven’t seen anything of Caracas, but on the way up here I could see those wretched shanty-towns from the main road. In Opus Dei there is room for everyone. This vocation is not only for university students. You have to do apostolate with the rich, it’s true, and also with those people who are suffering from hunger – above all, hunger for God. The Work is for everyone.” Saint Josemaría arrived in Venezuela on this date on one of his catechetical journeys, and said these words not twenty hours after landing at Maiquetia Airport, Caracas, where the photo shows him with Msgr. Alvaro del Portillo.
