Amityville Dominican Sisters
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

May 2026

May arrives as gardens
get seeded, planted and bloom.
Flowers dot the landscape with little buds pushing
through the soil of the earth to announce a
variety of colors and sizes to decorate the Universe.

🌷

Oh how wonderful is the gift of Nature
showing us all how to …
…seed goodness
…plant kindness
…and bloom with charity of spirit

🌳

Like Mary’s Magnificat we are called to
be glorious with …
…joy and hope
…mercy and compassion
…justice and forgiveness
…comfort and happiness shared

☮️

Oh how wonderful is this May time
telling us to be …
…peace-givers
…good landscapers of loving others
…tillers of the soil of harmony

🌻

Bless this May time with
your heart magnifying the
Lord’s goodness in all you do, say
and pray for.

🙏
