Charism

“By promising obedience to St. Dominic, we intend to be faithful to his spirit and mission”

I renew in the hands of my Blessed Father Dominic my vows of chastity, poverty and obedience until death.

October 2011 saw the blessing of our newly restored parlor grilles.

We participate in the life and mission of the Dominican Order precisely as women religious wholly dedicated to the contemplative life.  The grille is a clear, effective and ancient symbol of our special call to be cloistered nuns.

As cloistered nuns

"Nuns relive and perpetuate in the Church the presence and the work of Mary.  Welcoming the Word in faith and adoring silence, they put themselves at the service of the mystery of the Incarnation, and united to Jesus Christ in his offering of himself to the Father, they become co-workers in the mystery of redemption" (Verbi Sponsa #4).
