The work of Saint Augustine has been at the center of a conflagration of enthusiasm in the Christian Church and beyond it for over fifteen hundred years. The precocious teenager who became a Manichean, the reveler who became a bishop, the bishop who became a saint-millions have been inspired to sanctity by the story of this fourth century Latin Father of the Church and millions more by the sublimity of his doctrine. Fewer, however, are familiar with the Rule he wrote to govern the monastic life of his small religious community at Thagaste in Africa, and later the life of his own priests as Bishop of Hippo. In a series of seventeen conferences, Fr. Walter Wagner, OP of the Saint Joseph Province of the Order of Preachers, offers his reflections on this ancient Rule. With wisdom and wit, he unearths Saint Augustine's finest ideals for living the Christian life and concretely applies them to 21st Century Dominican Life as it is lived today by thousands of priests, brothers, nuns, sisters, and lay men and women. Enlightening and challenging, both brand-new Christian and wizened Diamond Jubilarian will benefit from this delightful commentary. The book is now in its Second Edition.
H. C. C. Astwood: minister and missionary, diplomat and politician, enigma in the annals of US history. In Dominican Crossroads, Christina Cecelia Davidson explores Astwood’s extraordinary and complicated life and career. Born in 1844 in the British Caribbean, Astwood later moved to Reconstruction-era New Orleans, where he became a Republican activist and preacher in the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church. In 1882 he became the first Black man named US consul to the Dominican Republic. Davidson tracks the challenges that Astwood faced as a Black politician in an era of rampant racism and ongoing cross-border debates over Black men’s capacity for citizenship. As a US representative and AME missionary, Astwood epitomized Black masculine respectability. But as Davidson shows, Astwood became a duplicitous, scheming figure who used deception and engaged in racist moral politics to command authority. His methods, Davidson demonstrates, show a bleaker side of Black international politics and illustrate the varied contours of transnational moral discourse as people of all colors vied for power during the ongoing debate over Black rights in Santo Domingo and beyond.

Since 1962, more than 3,000 Volunteers have served in the Dominican Republic. These Volunteers have contributed to technical skills transfer and institutional capacity-building in a wide range of fields, including agriculture, urban and rural community development, forestry, conservation, environmental education, community health and child survival, nursing, small business development, fisheries, water and sanitation, teacher education, university education, youth development, and information technology.Over the years, Peace Corps Volunteers have contributed significantly to the establishment and development of many of the country's leading nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and have worked hand-in-hand with the various administrations that have governed the Dominican Republic. In keeping with its commitment to peace and development, the Peace Corps remained in the Dominican Republic throughout its civil war in the 1960s. Our commitment to service has been highlighted through the good work of Volunteers and their project partners in the recovery efforts following two of the most severe hurricanes to hit the country's shores (David in 1979 and George in 1998).

With lush green forests, picturesque waterfalls, miles of hiking trails, volcanic mountains, thermal springs, and an endless list of fun activities, every day is a Sunday in Dominica.
