Fr. Shah was clothed in the Dominican habit in 2003 and ordained to the priesthood in 2009. His earlier studies were in religion, philosophy, and education. He is an adult convert. Before entering the Order, he worked for a high school run by the (French) Christian Brothers on the Lower East-Side, NY, NY; he taught in the Literature and Religion departments for three years. It was during this time that he discerned his call to an active, priestly ministry, focused on doctrinal preaching, and necessarily flowing from contemplative study and communal religious observance.

Click above to hear this week's edition of "Word to Life", which disucsses the readings for this Sunday's Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Joining me in the studio as I fill in for Fr. Gillen are Frs. Basil Cole, O.P., and John Chrysostom Kozlowski, O.P.
Also with us over the telephone is Fr. Peter John Cameron, O.P., who has recently published Mysteries of the Virgin Mary: Living Our Lady's Graces (Servant Books, 2010). The book is a series of meditations on 13 of the Church's Marian feasts, among which the Assumption is included.
