A brief account of the reception by three men of the Habit of the Dominican Friars in Limerick, Ireland. This occasion is the start of their noviciate in de Order of Preachers
Whatever the reason is that not everybody wears an alb (as there are different opinions dispensations given), the younger generations all do were an alb... the same for wearning the habit as a habit, that is also a change with the younger brothers...
well it is Ireland, and unfortunately, alot of Religious in general, contrary to Vatican teaching on Liturgics, wear their habits -as albs-, which is inappropriate, many Communities, in my experience , today see the habit as purely a liturgical garment,thus unfortunately they wear them ONLY for Liturgical functions anyawys....so slow steps in the reform of The Reform... God Bless the new Brothers...
