Founded in Spain in 1928 by the Catholic priest St. Josemaría Escrivá, Opus Dei was given final approval in 1950 by Pope Pius XII.[5] In 1982, by decision of Pope John Paul II, the Catholic Church made it into a personal prelature-that is, the jurisdiction of its own bishop covers the persons in Opus Dei wherever they are, rather than geographical dioceses
