The Catholic organisation Opus Dei is produced up of several different mark of membership:

Admission and Incorporation


To become a portion of Opus Dei one has to get a divine calling or a vocation, a calling which requires practising the modes of the Opus Dei prelature. For this the directors of Opus Dei will draw to discern if someone does do the vocation, previously allowing him to be incorporated into the prelature.[]

Incorporation into Opus Dei is done through a contractual bond between the grown-up who has the vocation and the prelature.[]
