Parable Closes
After thoughtful discernment and extensive consultation with leadership throughout the Dominican Family, the Board of Directors of the Parable Conference for Dominican Life and Mission, Forest Park, IL, has decided to dissolve the conference. The announcement comes as the last Lands of Dominic pilgrimage winds its way through Spain, France, and Italy. The closure comes at a time of substantial change within the U.S. Dominican Family.
The board solicited input in a letter sent to leaders of various Dominican entities across the United States in early January 2008. Board members came to their decision in light of limited financial resources and the input they received from the consultation letter.
