What attracted me to this community
The Congregation Mission Statement, “to proclaim the Gospel through the ministry of preaching and teaching in order to participate in the building of a holy and just Church and society.” The mission confirmed God’s call in my life to preach and teach the Gospel to all nations. God directed me to the Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa so that I could continue to live out this charism of preaching and teaching fully, in service of God’s people.
