Dominikanische Studienfahrt Teil III: Frankreich

Von Spanien aus ging es über einen (für die Noviziatsleitung obligatorischen) Zwischenstopp in Lourdes zu einer Keimzelle dominikanischen Lebens: Prouilhe. Nachdem wir uns bisher chronologisch in der Zeit vor der Ordensgründung aufgehalten haben, war der letzte Teil unserer Reise von den ersten Aktivitäten des Predigerordens geprägt. In Prouilhe gründete Dominikus das erste Frauenkloster des Dominikanerordens, in dem bis heute Moniales leben. Wortwörtlich auf den Spuren des hl. Dominikus wandelten wir, als wir den „Chemin Saint Dominique“ gingen, der von Prouilhe über Wiesen und Felder hoch nach Fanjeaux führte und den Dominikus oft gegangen ist, wenn er vom einen in den anderen Ort wollte. In Fanjeaux, wo Dominikus Seelsorger war, reifte in ihm die Idee der Gründung eines Frauenklosters. Und wie es für dominikanische Orte fast schon unverzichtbar ist, hat man auch hier einen ganz weiten Blick über die Landschaft und kann bei gutem Wetter sogar die schneebedeckten Pyrenäen sehen. 

Von Prouilhe aus besuchten wir unsere Brüder in Toulouse, eine weitere Keimzelle des Ordens. Nicht nur weil hier der große Dominikaner Thomas von Aquin beerdigt ist, sondern weil hier der erste Brüderkonvent entstand: Das Haus des Petrus Seila. Er war einer der ersten Gefährten von Dominikus und stellte der Gemeinschaft sein Haus als Konvent zur Verfügung, dessen Kapelle bis heute erhalten ist und in dem man regelrecht den Gründungsgeist atmen kann. Auch besuchten wir Carcassonne, die kleine, historische Stadt, in der Dominikus predigte Mit unseren zeitlosen Ordensgewändern passten wir in der Tat perfekt zum mittelalterlichen Flair der Stadt 😉. Die Predigttätigkeit von Dominikus war hier allerdings von mäßigem Erfolg gekrönt. Doch auch das sollte man nicht vergessen, wenn man sich mit Heiligen befasst: Die ganz gerade Biografie gibt es zum Glück nicht; auch sie haben Misserfolge und Umwege oder Brüche erlebt. Selbst der Gründer des Predigerordens war wohl nicht immer ein glänzender Prediger!

Der letzte Tag der Wallfahrt war für mich nochmal ein echtes Highlight. Nachdem wir uns von den Schwestern in Prouilhe verabschiedet hatten, ging es schon Richtung Heimat. Dabei machten wir Halt im Musée de la Grand Chatreuse, wo wir eine ganz fantastische Ausstellung über den Kartäuserorden besuchten. Ich habe wieder einmal meine „heilige Faszination“ für diese Lebensform entdeckt, die so existenziell auf Gott verweist. Kartäuser beten, wenn die Welt schläft; sie verlassen ihr Kloster nur zum wöchentlichen Spaziergang und leben ihre Beziehung zu Gott überwiegend in der Stille ihrer Zelle. Wie ein Rahmen, begonnen bei den Zellen in La Tourette bis zu den Zellen der Kartäuser, steht die Frage für mich am Beginn und am Ende der Wallfahrt: Was und Wie viel brauche ich wirklich?

Ganz in der Nähe der Kartause, in Chalais, wohnen dominikanische Moniales in einer atemberaubenden Landschaft. Schon praktisch, wenn man so schönen Orten Familie hat 😉 Chalais war ein wunderbarer Abschluss unserer Reise. Hier das mehrstimmige Stundengebet in der schlichten, aber schönen Kirche zu singen, ließ das Herz höherschlagen. 

Dankbar 

für die schöne Gemeinschaft von Brüdern und Schwestern

für die Menschen, denen wir auf dem Weg begegnet sind,

für die dominikanische Familie

den Predigerorden besser kennen lernen zu dürfen, 

sind nun wieder auf dem Weg nach Hause, um viele Eindrücke und Inspiritation reicher.

Sr. M. Clarita

P.S: noch ein kleiner Spendenaufruf: Unsere Schwestern in Prouilhe freuen sich sehr über finanzielle Unterstützung für das neue Gästehaus. Weil der Ort so bedeutend für den Dominikanerorden ist, ist es für den Gesamtorden ein Herzensanliegen, den Ort zu erhalten.

    There is always a chance of getting what you lost to scammers back. I'm not a cybersecurity expert, but I can offer some general recommendations on what you can do if your cryptocurrency has been stolen. It's important to understand that recovering stolen cryptocurrency can be incredibly difficult for recovery, except when you meet the right agent, and in many cases, many scammers are pretending to be legit agents. However, there is every possibility of recovering your funds, With the help of Saclux Comptech Specialst, God used them to help me get all my stolen USDT back after a friend of mine who is nowhere to be found introduced an investment platform to me hoping to get my return in 60days. When it was time for me to withdraw my 60-day bill investment, they refused to let me withdraw it into my wallet in coinbase, they asked me for 3% of the total of the money I invested, That was when it was done to me that I had been scammed. Fast forward,  a Saclux Comptech Specialst came to me in the process of searching for solutions on how to get my money back, I gave them a try and they proved to me they are the best when it comes to the recovery process. Thank you for helping me recover all my money back without asking for an upfront payment. You can reach out to them via: sacluxcomptechspecialst@engineer.com

    I have to share my experience on how I was saved by a good recovery agent who was recommended by a friend after investing in Bitcoin. I bought a Bitcoin wealth of 250,000 euros for an investment platform called Flaregain. com. When it was time for me to withdraw my investment, they logged me out and demanded payment of 5,000 euros before I could have access to my login investment platform, which I did. They still ask me to pay more money and I refuse because a legit investment platform can never ask you for money after investing in their platform. During the process of asking questions and checking Google, Saclux Comptech Specialst was recommended to me and they came through for me and they are very passionate and dedicated to their recovery job. They are positive in their work and they genuinely care also to assist you in getting your stolen money back, just the same way they help me recover all my stolen investment money.

    Hello everyone! I have always wanted to advise you guys about how we need to be very cautious about the world around us, I'm talking about our cybersecurity, digital marketing, investment and so on. Just about a few weeks ago, I met some investment firms which turned out to be fraudsters. I was defrauded of my USDT about $343k. That was the amount I deposited through my Blockchain wallet. They convinced me that the funds I deposited were going to make a lot of profit. However, I have to make another deposit of 8k USDT to activate my investment. It became obvious that these guys were scammers. They took all my money and blocked me. I felt so bad and depressed then, but I never gave up. Searched for several recovery hackers who could help me with the fund's recovery. Read so many reviews and testimonies of several hackers and I randomly picked Salux Comptech Speialst (sacluxcomptechspecialst@engineer.com), one of the hackers that brought solutions to my fraud-type of circumstances. I challenged myself to give them a trial even though I was doubted at first, I just had to take the risk and eventually, my stolen money was recovered. It feels like I'm still in their debt for such a trustworthy service. If they were some fraudsters they would have just defrauded me again because I paid them before my recovery service was rendered. Find out more details by reaching out to them.
