DOMINE MI REX, DA MIHI IN DISCO CAPUT JOANNIS BAPTISTAE

 

Today is the annual commemoration of the first finding of the Head of Saint John the Baptist in Jerusalem, the head reputedly now in Rome in San Silvestro in Capite.

By the merits of the sacred Head of our Holy Patron,

may our Order be led in its pilgrimage along a straight path 

towards the Heavenly Jerusalem!
