Religious life is a call from God . . . Proclaiming the Gospel through prayer, study, community and ministry. Living the Dominican Mission as a religious sister means sharing a commitment to God and to one another. We are compelled to build community, preach God’s word, and work for justice and peace wherever we are sent on mission.

The best way to get a good sense of religious life is to talk to people living it! We invite you to contact us for more information about our life and mission!

Reflecting - Retirement & Moving

Image
    When Sisters began composing reflections for the Vocation Blog, those of us who volunteered to write were challenged to tell the story of what is happening in our everyday lives as Sisters.  So, here is what is going on with me now.    On June 30, I retired from my ministry of providing administrative support for the Prioress and Leadership Council.  In addition, sometime in August, I will be moving from my current residence in East Dubuque to be in community with a group of our Sisters at Chapel Garden in Milwaukee.   There have been some gatherings of Sisters and our staff at the Mound to mark the events for which I am very grateful.  However, needless to say, the angst I am feeling in the midst of two rather significant changes in my everyday life is quite daunting. God and I are conversing about this whole scenario, and I’ve also found having dialogues with other Sisters has been very helpful, reassuring, and comforting.  I am so grat...

HOME

  I am fortunate to have an iPhone and I use the maps feature regularly when I travel to different places. What I like best is that on my return journey all I need to do is hit the HOME button and  no matter where I am it routes me safely home. I’ve been thinking about the significance of HOME lately especially as I and so many of our sisters have recently moved and settled into new spaces.  Can you find yourself at home in the gift of this day? Do you find yourself at home in your heart? I have returned to live at Sinsinawa mound and feel deeply at home. It is the space from which our sisters are sent out on mission and to which they return for their final resting place. I think of all who have been forced or bombed out of their homes. All the millions of displaced people searching for a place to call home, all the unhomed peopled on our own city streets especially veterans and those with mental health problems who have no place to call home. How am I called to respond o...

Join Us in "Building Bridges"

Image
Ash Wednesday confronts us with the ultimate truth: our lives belong to God . This truth calls us to humility and a renewed focus on God’s mission of love and mercy.   Join us over lent in “building bridges” toward living out God’s mission in the world. It is our responsibility as Christians that our faith is not just personal but also social. Ash Wednesday creates an opportunity to begin anew. To intentionally reflect on our need to move from sin to grace, from self-reliance to trust in God. We acknowledge our lives belong to God . This truth calls us to humility and is an invitation to intentionally open our hearts to deeper conversion by living Gospel values.   Our Lenten journey mirrors Jesus’ 40 days in the desert (Matthew 4:1-11), calling us to deepen our faith through: Prayer , it strengthens our relationship with God as we ask for the graces we need and pray for the common good. Fasting , letting go of the distractions that keep us from living the joy of the Gospel....
