The Dominicans of Summit

Verlag: Monastery of Our Lady of the Rosary, Summit, NJ, 1967

Beautifully printed item from the nuns at the Monastery of Our Lady of the Rosary, being "the first in a series of light-hearted dialogues to show that contemplatives are human and still able to laugh at themselves as they go about the serious business of up-dating." Though the colophon mentions a planned series, we find no mention of other volumes following this one. From dominicanajournal dot org: "The Monastery of Our Lady of the Rosary in Summit, NJ was founded by a group of fourteen sisters fromUnion City, NJ on October 2, 1919.Established with the mission of praying without ceasing, especially through the Rosary, in 1926 the monastery also established the practice of perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.In the 1960s, the nuns began to develop modes of financially supporting the monastery through work suitable to cloistered life. Initially they undertook projects in calligraphy and illumination, and in 1963 they established a printing press that produced wedding invitations, memorial cards, and ordination cards, as well as pamphlets related to the monastery and to the Order of Preachers."
