Answer 1

For Opus Dei--Latin for the Work of God--the ceremony represents the Vatican's highest seal of approval for an international organization that critics regard as a secretive, almost Masonic sect within the Catholic Church.
Opus Dei, formally known as The Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, is an international organization which is part of the Roman Catholic Church. "Opus Dei" is Latin for "The Work of God", and the organization is sometimes known simply as "the Work".

Opus Dei emphasizes the Catholic belief that "everyone is called to become a saint" and that "ordinary life is a path to sanctity". Hence, only a small minority of its approximately 85,000 members are priests. Most members, known as "Supernumeraries", lead traditional family lives and have secular careers. The other three classes of members, "Numeraries", "Associates", and "Numerary-assistants", are celibate, and often live in special centers.
