Apostolates

We preach the Kingdom of God through education, evangelization, and aid to the suffering.

How we serve

As part of the Dominican Order, the Congregation of the Sisters of Saint Dominic accept as its purpose the proclamation of the truth of the Gospel to those in greatest need (Luke 4:18; 3:31). In this purpose, our Congregation reflects Christ who was sent to the poor and those in need.

Education

Some of our Sisters teach in schools, educating the young in the life of grace, and instilling in them the love of Jesus. We seek to develop their values and virtues, with an end to be better members of society and above all to be faithful disciples of God as they come to learn their filial role in His Kingdom. Our Sisters also work in the parishes, working closely with our priests to serve the catechetical needs of the children, preparing them for the Sacraments, and nourishing their spiritual lives.

Evangelization

We evangelize the culture in varied ways, especially according to the needs of our environment. We host and facilitate retreats in our retreat center. We also take part in events where there are opportunities to preach the Word of God and share our Catholic culture: in conferences, in summer camps, in pilgrimages, etc. As women religious, we also hope to witness the joy and gift of consecrated life everywhere God sends us.

Aid to the Suffering

We bring aid to the suffering in the healthcare facilities we run. We remind the suffering of their inestimable dignity as children of God, precious and unique in His sight. In our nursing homes, we perform corporal and spiritual works of mercy as we take care of both the bodily and spiritual needs of our residents. Some of our Sisters also visit the home-bound as well as those in the hospitals and hospices who need the Sacrament of the Eucharist brought to them. Lastly, we journey with the dying, preparing them for Heaven, praying by their side, and making sure they have the last rites available to them.
