'''The Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei''' (from the [[Latin]] "work of [[God]]") is a [[Catholic]] religious group that believes every member of their church has the potential to become a [[saint]], and must perform God's work to reach such holiness. Opus Dei is a personal prelature of the Catholic Church that helps people seek holiness in their work and ordinary activities. Opus Dei stresses the importance of work and professional competence. It promotes the view that daily life is an opportunity to grow closer to Christ through service to others and improving society, as commanded by the [[Holy Bible]], "Be perfect, as your father in heaven is perfect." (Matt 5:48)
