Tradition holds that when pregnant with her son
Dominic, Blessed Jane of Aza
had a vision of a dog running around the whole
world, a blazing torch in its mouth.
The son became the founder of the Order of Preachers,
known as the Dominicans thus the prophetic dream was fulfilled as the Dominican
friars took the light of the gospel throughout the world. They became known
as the Dogs of the Lord. In Latin the word Dominican would be Domini
Canes, literally Dogs of the Lord.
Sr Pauline Quinn op is a Dominican and like her
Dominican brothers and sisters, Hounds on the trail, sniffing out injustice,
digging up truth and defenders of peace. The Dominicans are trying to help
people who cross our path in hopes to make this a better world one person
at a time, without regard to race or religion.
