From Andorra to Peru to collaborate professionally in the human and Christian promotion of the people of the Peruvian Andes <\/span><\/span><\/strong> <\/p>\n

Last April 2, Paco Coll, the first Andorran of Opus Dei, died in Can\u0303ete (Peru) at the age of 88.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Francesc (Paco) Coll Canut was born in Escaldes (Andorra) on January 9, 1935. His parents ran the Burgos Bar in this parish for a few years.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

On the morning of December 2, 1937, Saint Josemaria Escriva\u0300 de Balaguer arrived in Andorra through Mas d’Alins -after crossing rivers and mountains on foot for 100 km- seeking the necessary freedom to continue spreading the message of the call universal to holiness in ordinary life, which God had entrusted to him in 1928, together with the foundation of Opus Dei.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

On December 3, the day after arriving in Andorra, Saint Josemaria entered the Bar Burgos. At the edge of the counter, the mistress of the house was holding a two-year-old baby -who was Paco Coll- and who was celebrating his saint that very day. Saint Josemaria greeted them affectionately, held the child for a moment, and gave him a sugar that had been served with the coffee. This mother was well impressed by the affection of this unknown priest at that time.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, Paco Coll would get to know Opus Dei and in 1954 he would ask for admission. A short time later he would be one of the faithful of Opus Dei who would go to the prelature of Yauyos (Peru) with Mons. Ignacio Orbegozo to support the work of evangelization and social and human promotion in those lands that the Holy See wanted to entrust to Opus Dei in 1957. <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Together with other faithful of Opus Dei they would promote Radio ERPA, <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>a basic literacy initiative in that mountainous area of the Andes. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Later, in 1965, he would collaborate in the beginnings of Valle Grande<\/span><\/a>, a technical and professional training center, with the desire to contribute to the well-being of the families of Can\u0303ete and Yauyos. It is now a Higher Education Center of recognized prestige throughout Peru.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

He will help us from heaven in the work we do to promote this “Andorra Way” which follows in the footsteps that Saint Josemaria started in that distant year in 1937.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
