www.summitdominicans.org They incarnate in their lives the cry of Saint Dominic:

“O Lord, what will become of sinners!”

Monastic, contemplative community of Dominican Nuns whose traditional life of prayer, study, work is offered to God for the salvation of souls and the preaching of the Gospel. The Nuns of the Order of Preachers are to seek, ponder and call upon the Lord Jesus Christ in solitude so that the WORD proceeding from the mouth of God may not return to Him empty, but may accomplish those things for which

It was sent. (Isaiah 55:10) Living in the heart of the Preaching Family, the nuns live in the WORD of God which the friars, sisters, and laity preach. In the cloister, the nuns devote themselves totally to God and perpetuate that singular gift which the blessed Dominic had of bearing sinners, the down-trodden and the afflicted in the inmost sanctuary of his compassion.

Jesus tells his disciples to go into the village, where they will see a donkey and a c**t tied up. They are to untie them and bring them to Jesus. If anyone says anything to them, they are to respond, “The master has need of them,” and the man will “send them at once.” The faith

Today’s Responsorial Psalm, the De Profundis (Latin for “out of the depths”), is a famous psalm both as a prayer for the dead, as well as a cry to God from the “depths” of the heart of the one praying it. This psalm speaks to the universal human experience of desperation that yells for aid...

I’m not sure if Magnificat has ever done a “Saint Who?” series of “Saints who had extreme thirst,” but I have a feeling there wouldn’t be too much of a problem in finding enough of them. Some of my favorite saints have died with terrible thirst. In Peru in 1617, Rose of St. Mary (also kn...

This Sunday’s Gospel of the Transfiguration gives us a chance to meditate on what it means to seek the face of God. This longing of the human heart to see the face of God is expressed in the Old Testament in a number of places, but it has a particularly poignant place in the Psalms. As we sing the...

The Liturgy throughout Lent repeats many great “r” words: “ renew in me a steadfast spirit” (Ps 51:10), “ Repent! I stand at the door and knock.” (Rev. 3:20), “A man will reap only what he sows” Gal. 7:8). For this First Sunday of Lent let us reflect on three: remember, repent, and r...
