We joyfully celebrate Sr. Carole Rossi, on her 60th Jubilee as a Dominican Sister of Peace! She has devoted the past ten years of her life in the ministry of offering prayer for others. Formerly, she served in pastoral ministry to the Spanish speaking community at a Catholic parish in East Boston and ministered in adult education at Crystal Spring Ecology Center in Plainville, Massachusetts. Speaking of Crystal Spring, Sr. Carole was part of an intentional community that formed there in 1992 with three other Dominican Sisters. Their purpose was to live as a simple, sustainable community , aware of the interconnectedness with all of God’s creation. Add to this time ministering as a principal and an elementary teacher. We honor you Sr. Carole for your pioneer spirit and many years of service during your Jubilee Year!

The Order of Preachers, abbreviated OP, is also known as the Dominicans, after our founder, St. Dominic. The Dominicans were the first itinerant order, leaving the monastery to preach the truth of the gospel and Christ’s love.
The first Dominican institution was a convent in the French city of Prouille. The order was founded in 1215 in Toulouse, France.
The first Dominican women religious in America were our foremothers, the Dominican Sisters of St. Catharine, founded in 1822 in Kentucky.

We are grateful to Suzanne Wong for her image of Signadou. Signadou (from the French, meaning ‘sign of God’) is the site in Fanjeaux, Southern France, where St Dominic’s vision for the Dominican Order began to unfold. We are blessed by Suzanne’s preaching.
