7 NOVEMBER 2011. Today we celebrate the Feast of All Saints of the Order of Preachers.
Saint Dominic has left us a legacy of teaching and preaching by word and by the example of our lives. It is, then, joyous and encouraging that so many of our Dominican brothers and sisters have been beatified and canonized by our Mother Church.
In A.D. 1670 the Master General of the Order, Juan Tomas Rocaberti, sought and obtained permission from the Holy See for the Order of Preachers to observe a feast in honor of all the saints of the order: friars, brothers, sisters, nuns, and laity, including many, many blesseds.
Relying necessarily on the favor of their intercessions and the prayers of the Blessed Virgin, let us pray:
Lord, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy.
Christ, have mercy.
