Every four years individual provinces of the Dominican Order hold a meeting or chapter. The meeting is held so as to plan for the future and to elect a provinical and other officers for the following four years.
This summer the Irish Dominicans held their chapter and elected a new provincial.
An account of the chapter is published in book form, which includes a letter from the central governing body of the Order, which is based in Rome.
The letter accompanying the most recent chapter of the Irish province makes suggestions and recommendations as to how Irish Dominicans might carry out their work over the next four years.
In the last few days on both the Irish Dominican website and on the international website of the Order a video has been posted, which discusses the aftermath of the Eucharistic Congress, which was held in Dublin in the summer.
A comparison of the video with the letter from Rome in the current book on the recent meeting of the Irish Dominicans is well worth studying.

Michael, said video is not on the "Irish Dominican website". It is on YouTube and accessible through the students' website (DominicansInteractive.com), the vocations website (DominicanFriars.ie - not the vocations blog) and the international website of the Order (op.org).
Thank you for your comment.
