St. Josemaria Escriva in Argentina, 1974. Taken from opusdei.org.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe spiritual formation in UA&P is entrusted to Opus Dei, a Personal Prelature of the Catholic Church. Opus Dei ensures the doctrinal and moral soundness of the other aspects of formation imparted in the University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Founded by St. Josemar\u00eda Escriv\u00e1 in 1928, Opus Dei strives to spread the universal call to holiness and apostolate. The faithful of the prelature come from different parts of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
St. Josemaria\u2019s spiritual legacy underpins the University\u2019s educational principles, which guide all policy and procedural decisions and actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lay spirituality<\/strong> provides the means to enable ordinary men and women to have a deeper appreciation of their faith and be closer to God in the middle of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFreedom of conscience<\/strong> guarantees the right of everyone to express his opinion and hold on to his beliefs, bound only by truth, prudence and charity.<\/p>\n\n\n\nLove for the poor<\/strong> pushes us to go beyond our own concerns and take on the personal responsibility to contribute to the material and moral betterment, especially of those who are in most need in society.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCare for details<\/strong> makes us actively think about the well-being of our colleagues, students, and the rest of the staff, in both intellectual and material realms.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPassionate love for the world<\/strong> helps us value reality and teach and learn deeply its various facets, in unity and coherence, through the different disciplines we teach and learn in school.<\/p>\n\n\n\nLove for the Church and the Pope<\/strong> makes certain our fidelity to the pronouncements of the teaching authority of the Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\nChristian identity<\/strong> marks our common mission in the University of appreciating and understanding our world, ourselves, and God\u2019s mission and destiny for each of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCollegiality in governance<\/strong> ensures against tyranny and in favor of deliberation and study in every decision made.<\/p>\n\n\n\nRead more about the Prelature:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
