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…..

Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.

Call to Action
April 2023
An April saying is: April Showers bring May Flowers
When we think of showers we think of rain drops.
The word showers is also used when we speak of…
…wedding showers~~showers of celebration
…showers of joy, glee~~ all that evokes happiness
…showers of tears~~representing sadness
What would we like to shower upon the world?
…peace
…harmony
…good will
…consolation
…respect
…kindness
…understanding
Showers help the earth to bloom.
Hmmm…think of how you and I bloom!
…when the Lord so graciously and unconditionally
showers the world with his goodness, kindness and forgiveness.
How can each one of us shower the world with our own goodness and kind deeds?
Just imagine… Everyone clapping in the world for grace-filled showers!
Is it possible?
Jesus says….be my disciple. And we all get to say Yes?
That is some loving “shower”!
Remember…bloom where you are planted. 🌹
Pray for Peace in every human heart.
