Lay Dominician
-
Saturday, May 13, 2023, 10:00 AM - 2:00 PMRepeats every second Saturday of the month until May 31, 2023Location: Donahue AcademyLay Dominicians are committed Catholics seeking to live a richer spiritual life in the world through formation in the charisms of St. Dominic and the 800-year-old order he founded. St. Dominic's life was marked by two driving passions: the salvation of souls trapped in sin, and the proclamation of Truth to those trapped by falsehood. If you share these passions, then perhaps you have a vocation to the lay Dominician life!
Any practicing Catholic of good standing, 18 years or older, who wishes to progress in the Christian life, is welcome to join. Becoming a lay Dominician is a five-year process of formation in the four pillars of Dominician spirituality: liturgical and contemplative prayer, study of our faith (including the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas), community, and apostolate. Meetings are held monthly, during which you will learn how to deepen your prayer life, how to explain and defend your faith, and how to bring your faith into the world around you. All this is done in community with brothers and sisters in Christ who share a love for souls, for the Truth, and for growing in faith and virtue.
Meetings are at Donahue Academy every second Saturday, from 10am-2pm. If interested, please contact Ina Carr at laydominicanavemaria(at)gmail.com.
