Apostolates
We preach the Kingdom of God through education, evangelization, and aid to the sick and 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.
(Constitutions no. 4)
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.
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.
Aid to the Sick and Suffering
We bring aid to the sick and suffering in our private nursing home facility, as well as through personal outreach as we visit the homebound. Some of our sisters also visit the sick as Eucharistic ministers, making sure that those in hospitals or hospices are not deprived of the Sacraments.
We remind the suffering of their inestimable dignity as children of God, precious and unique in His sight. As we perform corporal and spiritual works of mercy, we take great care to provide for the needs of both body and spirit.
Lastly, we journey with the dying, preparing them for Heaven, praying by their side, and making sure they have the last rites made available to them.
