Both are located in Rome. The Prelature is divided into territorial circumscriptions called regions. Some of the regions are further subdivided into delegations, with a more limited territory. Finally, at the local level, are centers of Opus Dei. These are dedicated to organizing the means of formation and pastoral care of the faithful of the Prelature in their area.
Centers are either for women or for men.
Each one is governed by a local council, headed by a layperson, who is the director, and at least two more faithful of the Prelature. For the pastoral care of the faithful the Prelate assigns to each center a priest from his presbyterate. No office of government, apart from that of the prelate, is for life. Relations with the Dioceses The Prelature of Opus Dei is a jurisdictional structure belonging to the pastoral and hierarchical organization of the Church. Like dioceses, territorial prelatures, vicariates, and military ordinariates, etc.
