Thomist-in-Training Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Happy Feast of All Dominican Saints! Who are your favorite "obscure" ones? I guess actually part of the problem is that Dominicans are apparently slackers on the canonization-pushing front, so a lot of the good ones stay Blessed. I love Bl. Jordan of Saxony & Fra Angelico (now an official Blessed). But I like all the ones everyone's heard of too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
