DOMINICAN LAITY Newsletter #23 August 2012   Dear Friends A large newsletter this time, because we have a number of international items that help give a picture of the global reach of Dominicans. But first, a few local matters. And we begin with a most charming picture from Teschmakers           Sr Mary Horn OP with Mrs Sarah Wellwood Hughes, mother of Barbara Hughes, at the Teschmakers Centenary in March. More local news: We note the death in Dunedin a few weeks ago of SISTER ALBAN, who was the oldest member of the congregation. Requiescat in pace. Sr Judith Robinson OP is now recovering from surgery in Invercargill. We are informed that Korimako Farm was in the good hands of Sr Mary Anna Baird! Auckland Dominicans may be interested in an excellent symposium called THE WORD OF GOD which celebrates the 50th anniversary of Vatican II.
