Learning Dominican Style
The Class of 2013 played a senior prank on our school the
week of Graduation. They put our school
up for sale by covering the side yard with FOR SALE signs. This creative, fun gesture exemplifies for me
what is most important about Dominican learning – community. These young men and women got together to
show us, the Faculty, and Staff, as well as the outside world, one more act of
community.
They are Dominicans. It is who they have become over their four
years. In the classroom, at Eucharist,
on the playing field, or at a choir concert or play performance each one of
these graduating seniors has been offered a sense of belonging. In their best moments and worst failures, we
have shown up and been present. Now, they
will lead the way for others, always bringing with them the gifts of study,
prayer, community, and service.
Where have you seen community lately?
