Words From a Student 

“Studying alongside Dominican brothers and lay students at the Dominican School of Philosophy & Theology, I learned to integrate a life of study with a life of prayer. Now as a high school religion teacher in Southern California, I hope to instill Dominican values in my students, fostering within them the same love for prayer, study, and community life that I experienced at DSPT...”

-Jarett Bilash, MA Theology ‘22

A Prayer by St. Thomas Aquinas

Grant me, O Lord my God,
a mind to know you,
a heart to seek you,
wisdom to find you,
conduct pleasing to you,
faithful perseverance in waiting for you,
and a hope of finally embracing you. Amen.
