Marianne d’s Reviews > St. Dominic: Preacher of the Rosary and Founder of the Dominican Order > Status Update

I have just finished this book! It was really interesting to read about such an amazing saint! They say that right as he died, he started to glow almost like a star! I am quite happy that I chose this book to read, it was never boring!

Nothing much has happened. St. Dominic just founded the third order Dominicans. They are lay men and women who can be married and be in this world, but get the special blessings of the order. They seem very interesting!

St. Domonic trained a few brothers to go to Poland to convert the heretics. They also mentioned that when others was looking at him they would see a glow coming from St. Domonic's forehead. Especially when talking about God!

They have just mentioned a brother named Jordan. One day he will became the head of the order! They have also mentioned a girl named Diana d'Andalò, who wanted to join the Dominicans at the age of 17!

St. Dominic has gone to Rome to get permission for his new order, Order of Preachers. He has performed yet another miracle! Also, he met St. Francis of Assisi, in a vision and in person. He is such an interesting saint!

I really enjoy saint biographies, so I suspect I will like this one! St. Dominic is such a captivating saint, he does so much! He also seems to have plenty of courage. I can't wait to find out more about him! He has already witnessed one miracle ( I hope even more:))
