On this occasion, st. Josemaria went especially to pray for the Church, which was going through difficult moments. When they arrived in Loreto (remembers don Javier) and entering the Basilica, they realised that the gate of the Holy house was already closed: “I recall the gesture of our father wanting to push open, trying to see if there was someone inside. There was no one (...). With an attitude very particular of his he knelt before the door, holding on to the iron bars of the gate. There we remained praying. That physical strength with which he held on to the bars was nothing but an expression of the intensity with which he prayed”.
