From Catholic Opus Dei to Atheism

[Anka]

Sorry to hear that   Most of the supernumeraries in Russia are married and their spouses are not involved in OD, we were the first supernumerary couple in Russia, even received a letter from OD Prelate. It's easier for supernumeraries whose spouses are not in OD, they can always 'blame' them for not letting them to go on a retreat or for using contraception.
I can only suggest watching some videos with Escriva's public speeches in Argentina or Peru, I don't know why but when you actually look at him in videos instead of reading his books you can see what a sneaky, unpleasant and bigoted person he was. I would also recommend giving her the book by Maria Carmen del Tapia I've mentioned, it helped me a lot.

Thanks...I'll give it a look.
Not sure she'd be receptive to it though...
It's not like she's making excuses not to follow those directives...she IS following them... :le sigh:

Do you have kids? If yes, try to stay with them when she goes to the OD Centre, they will become very interested in your kids when they will become teens, supernumeraries' kids are the best material for future numeraries. Here in Russia they opened a foreign language club for kids and Summer camp for teens. They keep the prices low compared with  other language courses and they are perfectly aware that it will be popular and parents will bring their kids for studying Spanish, English, German or French with native speakers not knowing that their kids' teachers are from OD. Most of the supernumeraries' teenage kids are already in OD, you can  join them at the age of 14.
