Meet the Authors: Book Signing at the Dominican Rosary Pilgrimage
Dominican Friars
During the lunch break on September 28th, make sure to visit the bookstore for an exclusive book signing event as part of the second annual Dominican Rosary Pilgrimage. This is your chance to meet several Dominican friars and have their books signed personally. Don’t miss out—books will also be available for purchase, so you can add these Dominican written works to your shelf.
