33 Men Attend February Vocation Weekend
February 15th, 2009 by Father Bill Garrott, OP
The Dominican House of Studies hosted its bi-annual Vocation Weekend February 13-15, 2009. 33 young men attended — our largest crowd in recent memory. Due to shortage of space and renovations to the oldest part of our priory, 12 men slept on the floor in sleeping bags. The picture was taken in Aquin Hall of our new academic center. 23 of the men attending the weekend are currently enrolled at the following academic institutions:
6 from Franciscan University of Steubenville
