Her name is Pamela, although she is known as Pame. This social communicator by profession, wife and mother of three children, is characterized by a serene and affable personality.

We can say that she always looks for the positive in those around her and is distinguished by a friendly and cordial treatment towards everyone.

Although her childhood and adolescence were spent in an environment that was alien to religious practice, while she was living in another country the seed of faith germinated within her thanks to the reading of a book by St. Josemaría Escrivá on the family. This fortuitous encounter with the work of the Spanish saint awakened in her a spiritual restlessness that led her to seek a greater closeness to God.

The awakening of faith

Motivated by the reading, Pame began to attend Mass more frequently and to receive the sacrament of reconciliation on a regular basis.

However, it was the birth of her third child, Alonso, and a new change in her husband's job that prompted her to take a more determined step in her faith journey. With the desire to strengthen her spiritual life and pass it on to her children, she decided to deepen her religious formation.

Moved by this restlessness and desire to improve, she approached the chaplain of her eldest son's school for guidance and asked him for the location of the Opus Dei center closest to her home. Thus, she began to participate in activities of Christian educationThey receive personalized spiritual attention, practice mental prayer and frequent the sacraments with greater constancy.

It was in Quito, during a trip seven years ago, that she finally committed herself to God in a deeper way, joining Opus Dei as a supernumerary.

Apostolate in the digital era

Pame finds great personal satisfaction in serving and building sincere relationships with the people around her, knowing that God uses everyone to reach out to others.

Her eagerness to transmit the faith has led her to become involved in various apostolic initiatives, such as initiating formation talks for her friends or acquaintances of her friends.

His participation in the following projects is especially noteworthy TalkWithJesus.comwhere it has been since the beginning. This online platform, driven by volunteers and priests, offers a space for encountering Jesus Christ through resources such as podcasts, content on social networks and training courses. The aim is for people to get to know Jesus, engage in dialogue with him, internalize his message and put it into practice in their daily lives.

With volunteers

Their work consists in maintaining the enthusiasm of the more than 70 volunteers who collaborate with the initiative. There are also many stories of conversions and coming closer to God. Pame sees each one as a true miracle and a gift from God.

Her story encourages us to follow her example, seeking holiness in the ordinary circumstances of our lives and trusting in the action of divine grace at work in hearts.
