A HARVEST OF THANKSGIVING

 

At this time of year

when days are full

and orchards yield a rich harvest,

we pause and ponder,

look back and give thanks

for all the Dominicans

who have gone before us

and walked in Dominic’s way,

serving with great love and  compassion,

living a full and holy life

as they walked on holy ground.

They shared their solid commitment

to living truth and justice

on behalf of those most in need.

A marvel to behold, remember and treasure.

We hold up with grateful hearts

the harvest of their hands

and ask that God’s blessing flow through each of them

our Dominican brothers, sisters and friends,

as we give deep thanks to our God.

 

By Sr. Brenda Walsh, Racine Dominican

 


 

Dominican Preaching Archive

Preaching is at the heart of the Dominican vocation. The Dominican Leadership Conference claims for all members of the Dominican Family the right to preach, and commits itself to the struggle this claim entails. The injustices of our day compel us to place the charism of preaching at the service of the poor and powerless. The Dominican prophetic message, rooted in experience, study and prayer, will move both preachers and hearers of the word to act for the transformation of oppressive structures. The Conference on its part will act corporately, confronting evil with the Gospel and working for the construction of a just world order.

We embrace the mission of preaching for justice with a commitment to act in collaboration with one another and all those with and among whom we minister
