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

May. A Month of Graces

We begin the month with the Feast Day
of St. Joseph…a humble and trusting soul
given the blessing of being Jesus’ earthly father,
We too are given the grace to follow Jesus.
What an example St. Joseph gives to us…
…to trust daily in God’s ways
…to live life in sincere and caring ways
…to share our goodness in humble and kind ways
As May continues as the Month of Mary…
We realize how this holy family cherished their faith
and the journey it had in their life.
We too can cherish how Mary lived her Magnificat
of magnifying God in her life.
Let us too magnify the Lord…
…where friendships understand better
…where distractions need not destroy our peace
…where humble “servant hood” is seen as a positive way
of sharing God’s love
…where “stewardship” is responsible and life-giving for all
…where trust is shared in daily ventures

May our prayer time this month of May be one that
reflects the simplicity, trust and love of Mother Mary and St.Joseph. Amen.

Pray for Peace in every human heart.
