The Varsitarian
THE HEAD of the Philippine Franciscan province said the faithful should follow St. Dominic’s example by rejecting mere “performances of holiness” and expressing their faith through genuine love for others.
He said Dominic’s works “were not performances of holiness.
“We cannot remain silent when truth is deliberately distorted by lies and misinformation,” he said, adding that “truth without love becomes harshness, while love without truth becomes compromise.”
St. Dominic founded the Order of Preachers in 1215 in Toulouse, France.
His feast is traditionally celebrated by both Dominicans and Franciscans in recognition of the long-standing friendship between St. Dominic and St. Francis of Assisi.
