Mission Statement

We Dominican women religious, called to be signs of joy and hope, commit ourselves to incarnating the Gospel, deepening our life of prayer, searching for Truth, discerning the needs of the Church and ministering to the people of God.

Heart to Heart Ministry is a reflection of this mission statement by inviting people to participate in spiritual programs …heart to heart.

Behold my children, the heritage I leave you… have Charity one for another, guard Humility… make your treasure out of Voluntary Poverty…..
– St. Dominic

Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.
– St. Catherine of Siena

Papal Prayer Intentions for March 2026

For disarmament and peace

Let us pray that nations move toward effective disarmament, particularly nuclear disarmament, and that world leaders choose the path of dialogue and diplomacy instead of violence.

July 2023
July 2023

July…the first full month of Summer warmth
Oh yes…fans and AC on but …
Let’s think of the warmth of Jesus’ love
It is a warmth of great…
…kindness
…caring
…understanding
…forgiving
…encouraging

It is a warmth that embraces all…
…sorrows
…celebrations
…weaknesses
…talents
…journeys
…wishes

This warmth is not …
…over bearing
…smothering
…disconcerting

This warmth brings…
…unconditional love
…eternal hope
…spiritual companionship

So for July… breathe in this spiritual warmth
Then…become it in your life
And…
No humidity of a hot summer breeze will
take away your joy of being
Jesus’ love for one another.

Breathe on me breath of God
Breathe on me anew.😊

Pray for Peace in every human heart.
