St. Josemaria had arrived in Rome on June 22nd, but the chapel wasn't ready yet. As soon as all details were finished, the Blessed Sacrament remained finally there.
St. Josemaria and don Alvaro lived approximately 16 months in that apartment at Città Leonina. the apartment was rather small but, as per the founder’s wish, from December 26th 1946 they had to move out to give the place to those who went to Rome to look after the administration. This also resulted in financial problems getting worse. What made St. Josemaria to speed up the arrival of the women for the administration was when he realized that the maid who used to help - a woman from Hungary who did not believe - lacked gentleness and care in all things related to the Chapel.
