Dominican Mass and Excellence Celebrations

We welcomed St Joseph's Primary School which are part of our Dominican charism and our special guests for the day were Sister Madeleine, Sister Mary and Sister Nola who are still active in our school and parish communities, along with other members of the Dominican family.  We also welcomed our Obirin students to the special Mass today, which began with a minute silence to remember those who left for war 100 years ago.  Sister Mary Horn gave the homily about St Dominic and told of the sisters arrival in New Zealand and our community.  Our Dominican Excellence Awards were presented at the end of the Mass and it was heartening to see a Chapel full of 650 people sharing in this occasion of the Feast day of St Dominic.
