Sub Tuum Praesidium

We fly to thy patronage, O holy Mother of God; Despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.

On 15th October, the feast of St Teresa of Ávila, Cardinal Nichols ratified the appointment of Fr Lawrence Lew OP, Prior of St Dominic’s as the new Parish Priest of our parish of Our Lady of the Rosary and St Dominic’s, Haverstock Hill. Currently, the responsibilities of the Rector of the Rosary Shrine will also be undertaken by the Parish Priest.

Please pray for Fr Lawrence Lew in his service and ministry as Prior, Parish Priest, and Rector here at St Dominic’s – the Rosary Shrine. Fr Lawrence arrived in St Dominic’s in June 2017, having just gained his License in Sacred Theology from the Dominican House of Studies in Washington DC. Prior to that (from the time of his priestly ordination in 2011) he had been Assistant Chaplain at Edinburgh University, working alongside Fr Dermot Morrin OP, who has also served as Prior and Parish Priest of St Dominic’s. Fr Lawrence currently also serves as the Dominican Order’s Promoter General for the Holy Rosary; as Spiritual Director for the Westminster Curia of the Legion of Mary; and he is Editor of the English Dominican Province’s magazine, The Dominicans.

O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
O Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Lady of Walsingham, Mother of God and our most gentle Queen and Mother, look down in mercy upon us, our parish, our country, our homes, and our families, and upon all who greatly hope and trust in thy prayers. By thee it was that Jesus, our Saviour and hope, was given to the world; and He has given thee to us that we may hope still more. Plead for us your children, whom thou didst receive and accept at the foot of the Cross, O sorrowful Mother. Intercede for our separated brethren, that with us in the one true fold they may be united to the Chief Shepherd, the Vicar of thy Son. Pray for us all, dear Mother, that by faith, fruitful in good works, we all may be made worthy to see and praise God, together with thee in our heavenly home. Amen.
