Hello everybody:

The Feast Day of St. Dominic is upon us, and in honor of the great Saint who brought us the great treasury of Our Blessed Mother, the Most Holy Rosary, here is attached the Little Office of St. Dominic taken from the rare little book Devotions to Saint Dominic, compiled by Rev. Fr. Bertrand Wilberforce, O.P., (North Guilford, CT: Our Lady of Grace Monastery, 1957).

Happy reading! :reading:

Happier praying!

St's Dominic & Francis met in Rome.

A Go Down function in the Forum would be nice. :farmer:

I will make a point of saying this on his feast day.

According to a story in Chesterton's biography of St. Thomas, St Dominic was once visiting the Vatican. After showing him around, the Pope said, "see, Peter can no longer say 'Silver and gold have I none". Dominic replied, "Yes, Your Holiness. He can also no longer say, 'Arise, take up they mat, and walk.'"
