This is the second of a 12-part series dedicated to an introduction to the teaching of St. Thomas Aquinas on the Trinity. In this video, Sr. Mary Magdalene speaks about the eternal and temporal processions of the divine persons and also the potential heresies we want to avoid in our understanding of this.
The Stations of the Cross are a traditional devotion for Lent, especially for Holy Week, which we can do as a community or privately at home. Here's a recording of Stations of the Cross recorded at the chapel at Blackfriars, Cambridge led by Sr Philomena Benedict and assisted by Br Aloysius. Music composed and performed by Sr Cecilia Bernadette. Reflection and prayers by St Alphonsus Liguori.
Sr. Ann Catherine Swailes o.p
The signs of contradiction everywhere.
Seed pods in high boughs roost, as last year’s leaves
Rattle their small deaths, and berries cling
Withered to blunted thorns, like jellied pearls
Of blood, flung by the ebb of life.
Sr. Mary Magdalene, O.P. STL introduces the 'Thomistic Studies' website.

I am a sister with the English Dominican Congregation of St. Catherine of Siena (Stone, U.K.), and I explain St. Thomas Aquinas’ teaching on various topics through online courses, videos, audio recordings, and articles. In 2018, upon completing my studies in DC and joining the English Dominican sisters in Cambridge, UK, I discovered that as more people become interested in Thomism, there is a greater need for more instructors to explain the teachings of St. Thomas and so benefit the lives and souls of many, helping students to grow in the understanding and practice of their faith.
