On this Solemnity of St. Dominic, Fr. Patrick Briscoe, O.P., joins us from the entrance to the cloister at Santa Maria Sopra Minerva—one of the great Dominican churches in Rome. Behind him is a rare fresco of our founder asleep, a mystical vision confirming his hope to found the Order of Preachers.
That vision continues to bear fruit by drawing souls to Christ through the Virgin Mary, especially through the preaching and praying of the Holy Rosary.
Happy Solemnity from the Dominican Friars!
Today is the Feast Day of St Martin de Porres. Two of our parishioners are members of the St. Martin de Porres Fraternity of Lay Dominicans. Meet them March 29 to learn more.

† St. Padre Pio says:
Any mental picture of your life that focuses on past sins is a lie and thus comes from the devil. Jesus loves you and has forgiven you your sins, so there is no room for a downcast spirit.
Practice frequent #Confessions and place all your trust in God!
Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this day [or night] be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.
You can use Google's Unit Converter to convert units of length to smoots, the height of MIT alumnus, Oliver Smoot.
In 1958, Smoot lay down repeatedly on the Mass Ave Bridge so that his fraternity brothers could use his height to measure the length of the bridge.
