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

Call to Action

March 2025

March…just the word itself
tells us something…an action
March…go forward into a new month and a new season
See the little buds pushing through the soil and
announcing new life.

Everyday we can march…in our own way into life
with a holy purpose announcing that Jesus’ love
is here …in each person’s heart and spirit.
We do this by being…
…respectful of each person’s dignity
…trusting in God’s call in our life
…responding to needs with compassion
…sharing our spirit

March…the breezes come and in
ordinary ways we spread the spirit of joy and hope
More sunlight also arrives showing us new paths to take
and new ways to serve the Lord with one another.

March to me is like the month of “resurrection”.
It reminds us to see and feel the sunlight of
our creator’s love in all our words, deeds and actions.
It is a month of blessings….be one of those blessings today.
