OPERA M is the revolution of the works of mercy. It is the permanent instrument for developing a strong and renewed vision of the works throughout the world.
It stems from an urgent need strongly felt by spazio + spadoni to reEvolve the concept of the work of mercy as a journey that is always simultaneously human and divine and, therefore, always spiritual as well as practical (or corporal). The rediscovery—or rather, the true reEvolution of the works must be rediscovered within this synthesis of the spiritual dimension and practical action. Material action must always be permeated by the spirit.
OPERA M is based on five actions that define its method: INVOKE, call upon the Spirit LISTEN, be silent to open yourself to listening ENCOUNTER, stay among the people LET US ACT, act for the works LET US FLOOD, bring everyone to the Works of Mercy Spiritual Works of Mercy Counsel the doubtful Instruct the ignorant Admonish sinners Comfort the afflicted Forgive offenses Bear wrongs patiently Pray to God for the living and the dead Corporal Works of Mercy Feed the hungry Give drink to the thirsty Clothe the naked Shelter pilgrims Visit the sick Visit prisoners Bury the dead
