Happy Provincial Feast Day from Denise

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Happy New Year and Happy Feast Day!

Today, January 3rd, is the Feast of the Most Holy Name of Jesus. We are blessed to be members of the province that honors Jesus’ Holy Name. To be called to membership in this great province is not only a blessing, but a responsibility.

Our culture has the common practice of taking the name of Jesus in vain every day. The Lord hears this offense throughout the world and in innumerable ways. Together, let’s repair for these offenses, and bring joy to our Saviour’s heart, by reciting the Litany of the Most Holy Name of Jesus (see link below).

May the Holy Name of Jesus be praised!

Have a healthy, happy and holy 2022.

God bless you always,

Denise

Christmas Message from our Lay Provincial Council President

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Jesus is born today!
The birth of Our Lord and Savior is the perfect time to recommit our lives to His Will. We can do this by re-consecrating ourselves to Our Blessed Mother and St. Joseph,  asking them to adopt us into their holy family. Then in gratitude, let’s serve them in every moment and circumstance of our lives.

Following the example of Our Lady and St. Joseph, let’s spend this Christmas Season in adoration of the Christ Child, present in the Blessed Sacrament.

The link below is an account of the Nativity by Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich. As you read through it, give special thanks to Our Lady and St. Joseph for all they did and endured for our salvation. Let’s ask for the grace to imitate their heroic virtues.

May our sweet Infant Jesus draw you close to His manger this day.
May Our Blessed Mother wrap you in Her mantle of protection. May St. Joseph guide you on your journey.

You are all in my heart and prayers each day.

Many blessings to you, your chapter and your families,
St. Dominic, pray for us!

Mrs. Denise Harvey, OP, LPC President
