| St. Dominic's Priory is
delighted to announce the Novice Class of 2003. These eight men have come from
various walks of life, but all have sought to live and serve the Lord in the tradition of
St. Dominic De Guzman. Please pray for them as they spend one year dedicated to
deeper prayer as they learn to live the Dominican life. "May the name of the God be hallowed in you that you may joyfully
drink from the wounds of Christ! May divine love, true peace, deep humility flowing
from the faithful heart of Jesus, and joyful forgetfulness of self in the company of the
most dear Son of God and of the Virgin Mary be yours. This is my "Lord's
Prayer" for bidding you farewell in Christ Jesus.
My little ones, may you experience such a spirit in
your good works and be such a work before God. Although your works may be many, may
you be one in heart. Grace is given now and glory in eternity in greater abundance
for the soul which is entrusted to the hands of God than for the soul which is outwardly
perfect, however great and holy it may appear.
Cultivate all the virtues you can, yet do not place
your confidence in them, but in Christ alone...."
