Prayer

  • Following in the Footsteps of our Holy Father Dominic

  • Nine Ways of Prayer of St. Dominic

  • Our Life, Our Sweetness, and our Hope

    We cherish a special devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Mercy, Queen of Apostles and Virgins, and of course Our Lady of the Rosary. We also express our love for Mary by singing the Litany of Loreto in her honor each Saturday, processions in her honor in May, and joyful celebration of her many feasts..

    This lovely statue of Mary and the Child Jesus giving the Rosary to St. Dominic is on the left side inside our extern chapel.

  • St. Dominic spent long hours in church every night, praying that the men and women he had preached to during the day would turn back to God. He had nine different ways of praying, each of which involved the body. As we pray with our Holy Father St. Dominic, we also join our prayers for the world with his: "My God, have mercy! What will become of sinners?"
