A Catholic friar of the Dominican order sings hymns from the pilgrimage prayer book before he and 13 other friars headed out on a pilgrimage on Tuesday, May 24, 2011, from the Dominican House of Studies in Northeast Washington to St. Dominic's Parish in Southwest. This is the first time the friars have held the pilgrimage, which commemorated the date that St. Dominic's body was moved from its original grave to its current resting place in Bologna, Italy. Each of the friars was instructed to have a personal intention for the pilgrimage. (Barbara L. Salisbury/The Washington Times)
