Army Surgeon General Nadja West at St. Dominic’s Church

We are delighted to share with you this amazing talk given at St. Dominic’s Church in Washington DC by our parishioner, US Army Surgeon General Nadja West. General West is a devout Catholic, true patriot, and dear friend of the Dominican Friars. Her message is an inspiring reminder of just what our Catholic faith has to offer our country – and why that gift is indispensable for the future of our republic. 

 

 

The Dominican friars are called to preach the Gospel in every age and in every place it is needed. Through preaching, teaching, pastoral ministry, and the formation of new friars, they work to bring the truth of Christ to a world searching for meaning and hope.

Reflections like this one are made possible because of the faithful support of friends like you. Your generosity helps sustain the friars in their mission to proclaim the Gospel, serve the Church, and form future preachers of the faith.

Support the preaching mission of the Dominican friars and help ensure that the light of the Gospel continues to reach hearts for generations to come.
