– St Dominic’s Day Mass 2017 –
In any week there is much to observe, enjoy and participate in, wherever students are making the most of each day. That is certainly our experience at St. Dominic’s.
Yesterday, we participated in a beautiful Mass for the Feast of St. Dominic. Our guests from Blackfriars, St. Mary’s and Cabra took part in it also. The theme: “Love has no Boundaries“, was explored in the words of Jesus in the Gospel of the Good Samaritan, in the commentaries, the music, the reflections, and in the art work to which every student in the college contributed. The day ended with the distribution of the black and white sweets!
To come, is Friday’s annual holiday in honour of our patron saint. Thank you St. Dominic.
