SacredSpace102fm - 800th anniversary of the death of St Dominic - 16 May 2021 (S11E26)

This week Sr Caitriona Kavanagh from the Dominican Sisters of St Cecilia in Limerick joins us to speak  about the  celebration by the Dominican family of the 800th anniversary of St. Dominic’s death during the year starting on the 6th of January 2021 until the 6th of January 2022.The theme for the jubilee celebration is At Table with St. Dominic, which is inspired by the Mascarella table, the table on which the first portrait of St. Dominic was painted shortly after his canonization. Thus, we will celebrate St. Dominic not as a saint alone on a pedestal, but a saint enjoying table fellowship with his brothers, gathered by the same vocation to preach God’s Word and sharing God’s gift of food and drink.As well as sharing more on the jubilee celebration, Sr Caitriona shares with us about the life of St Dominic, his promotion of praying the Rosary and the work of the Dominican family.We have our regular visit to the saints of the week, some local notices including about Limerick diocese Pentecost Mission and of course our reflection on the Sunday Gospel for the Ascension of the Lord.Text us at +353 874668950 or email at [email protected]
