Dominican Preaching through Word and Image
The Earth, the Seas, the Rivers, the People . . . are God’s
Friday’s Responsorial Psalm is from Psalm 24.
The Lord’s are the earth and its fullnes;
the world and those who dwell in it.
For God founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the rivers.

Pat, I love your website. I found it totally by accident as I was searching for something else. It combines three of my favorite things: Dominican preaching, photography, spiritual reflection.
I read in one of your posts that you are at St. Dominic’s in SF. Funny,I automatically think “2390 Bush St.” when I hear that. Is it the same St. Dominic’s? My uncle, Fr. Paul Duffner, OP served there when I was growing up, and the address has been etched in my memory ever since.
Thanks for your creative preaching.

Thank you, Margaret Ann, for your comment. Indeed, St. Dominic’s is at 2390 Bush Street; the convent is on Bush Street. I don’t live there anymore; I live in San Rafael at St. Margaret Convent. I sometimes miss “the City”, yet it is beautiful here, especially in the autumn. I remember hearing the name of Father Duffner, but I never met him. I was principal at St. Dominic School . . . was there for seven years, and continued to live in the City after I started in vocation ministry. I love “pulpit” preaching, but this may become an even more effective means of preaching . . . to many. Please say hello to Rebecca Ann, Kathlyn, Kathleen, Barbara, and Rose Marie for me. Thanks again. Pat
