IS GOD CALLING YOU TO BE A LAY DOMINICAN? You are invited to join the St. Mary Magdalene Lay Dominicans for prayer, fellowship, and discussion on Sunday, February 15, from 5:00−6:45 pm in the Parish House of St. James Catholic Church: 913 Park Avenue, Falls Church VA 22046 (use small adjacent parking lot). Lay Dominicans are single or married members of the Dominican Order who have responded to a call to live the Dominican way of life in their own families and occupations. The Dominican charism is one of prayer, study, community, and apostolate. Of these, study is perhaps the most distinctive element. We are life-long learners, who put that thirst for Truth at the service of our apostolic efforts. For more information, contact Rose Folsom at [email protected].
