Wow, this was wonderful. You painted a beautiful picture of
Our father in Faith, Dominic. I see and feel his essence with a a new and enlightened reality. Thanks for honoring his life with with your Dominican Gifts,
Thank you, Helen – very informative, very inspiring and very well presented. You certainly have provided much for prayer and thought.
Dear Helen…Thank you for your thoughts on Dominic. For anyone not familiar with our great Founder, your insights offer an inspiring introduction and provoke a desire to know more about Dominic and the great saints and scholars who came after him in our Order.
Thank you Helen! Your wonderful and carefully chosen word pictures brought me back to my pilgrimage in the Lands of Saint Dominic! I was attracted to his lustrous eyes and followed joyfully in his footsteps! I desired to become an icon of light as he was, drawing others into the Love and Light of Christ! May our lives and our prayers as his Dominican Sisters of Hope be infused with his zeal!
Helen,
Finally, I have taken the time to reflect on your journey through Dominic’s life, characteristics, and founding faith for us who attempt to live our charism. You have given us a clear word picture of who Dominic is today!
