Dancing a holy dance in Freising

This evening in Kardinal Döpfner-Haus in Freising in the Diocese of Munich and Freising, where Josef Ratzinger was archbishop, a Mexican Dominican, Dr Angel Méndez Montoya danced for 10 minutes during Vespers. The dance took place after the reading of the Psalms.

It was spectacular. It was prayerful. It was spiritual. It was uplifting.

Vespers or Evening Prayer concluded the Franciscan Dominican conference on 'Church in a secularised World'. Over 60 people took part in the conference.
