Today, Dominican personnel attended a retreat at the Archdiocese of New Orleans Retreat Center on the Feast of St. Dominic. To prepare for the return of students this week, the contemplative day included Eucharist Adoration, Ignatian Meditation Exercises, and a service project. Dominican personnel handmade rosaries to be given to the parents of new students. The beads represent the class colors so parents can pray the special rosary for their daughter during their five years at Dominican.
