The Dominican Order dates back to 1206 when St. Dominic founded a convent of Nuns in Prouilhe, France. Being part of the Order of Preachers connects us to the larger truth of God’s presence experienced in many cultures and places.
The Order of Preachers sharing the Gospel for over 800 years.
WE ARE DOMINICAN SISTERS -
Simply put we are united with over twenty seven thousand of our brothers and sisters in Dominic throughout the world.
We invite you to get to know charism, what we believe is our legacy and our role in mission for the sake of the Gospel today. Charism is what is important to us or the guiding principles of our lives.
