Recently, St. Martin de Porres Shrine & Institute sponsored a trip to France.

St. Martin de Porres Shrineand Institute sponsored a trip to France titled, "Footsteps of St. Dominic: The Early Years". The group traveled in Toulouse, Arles, and Paris. 


While in Toulouse, the group went to Prouille – the site of the first Dominican monastery. The Dominican Sisters invited the group to attend noon prayer and rosary before sharing lunch in the guest house. After lunch the group visited the gift shop to purchase the house wine, Dominican pins, necklaces, books, and postcards.

 Then it was off to visit Fanjeaux – village of two miracles attributed to St. Dominic. Included were stops at the Dominican Church, Convent, and Dominic’s house.
