The festive evening will mark — to the hour — the 175th anniversary of the Dominicans’ arrival in San Francisco on the night of December 6, 1850. We hope you’ll join the friars and many of our friends at this historic event as we celebrate the past and look forward to the future of the Province!
Your attendance and support will raise funds for the expansion of our Novitiate as we welcome a record number of new vocations ready to carry the cross for the salvation of souls.
Our keynote address will be delivered by Fr. Robert J. Spitzer, S.J., a long-time friend of the friars and a renowned author and speaker. His work evangelizing the culture via his award-winning books, leading and teaching at esteemed universities, and numerous media appearances embodies the spirit of Saint Dominic to preach boldly the truth of the Gospel.
We will also present the Alemany Award to Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco, who follows in the footsteps of Friar Joseph Sadoc Alemany, O.P., the first archbishop of San Francisco, and Bishop Michael C. Barber, S.J. of Oakland, for their faithful leadership and support of the Dominicans.
