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…..

Oh yes…fans and AC on but …
Let’s think of the warmth of Jesus’ love

…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.
