The Master of the Order invites the Dominican Family to undertake a "triduum of penance" from
4 October - 6 October 2020.
Each community is asked to determine the form of communal penance they will do together.
On 7 October 2020, the feast of the Holy Rosary, the Dominican Family is called to pray the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary at 8:00pm in their local time, and to livestream this if possible.
"We offer to God these days of penance and prayer for these intentions: in suffrage for those who died during the pandemic; for the intentions of their bereaved families; for those who continue to suffer the effects of the pandemic, and for those who work to alleviate their suffering."
- fr Gerard Timoner, O.P. Master of the Order of Preachers -
