Sister Maria Trâm Bùi, OP, to Make Perpetual Profession of Vows

On Sunday, August 9, 2026, Sister Trâm will make her lifelong commitment to God and the mission of the Dominican Sisters of Peace during a Eucharistic celebration at the Columbus Motherhouse Chapel in Columbus, Ohio.

Perpetual profession is a sacred and joyful milestone in religious life, marking a sister’s lifelong dedication to prayer, community, preaching the Gospel, and serving God’s people in the spirit of St. Dominic. As Sister Trâm professes her vows, we give thanks for her generous response to God’s call and celebrate this significant moment in the life of our congregation.

The ceremony will also be livestreamed, allowing friends and supporters from near and far to join in this joyful celebration.

A Lifetime of Faith

What Jubilarians Teach Us About Religious Life

In her latest column for Global Sisters Report, Sr. Ana González reflects on the meaning of jubilee celebrations in religious life. She highlights jubilarians as living witnesses to God’s faithfulness and to the Spirit-led changes that continue to shape religious life today.

Through their witness, jubilarians remind us that vocation is a lifelong journey—one marked by prayer, service, and ongoing transformation. Their stories offer both gratitude for the past and hope for the future of religious life.

Together in Mission: Dominican Mission Experience

An Introduction to Dominican Life

During the week of June 15, eight women from across the United States gathered in Springfield, Illinois, for a collaborative vocation program hosted by the Dominican Sisters of Springfield and four Dominican congregations: Adrian, Peace, Sinsinawa, and Springfield.

Through prayer, study, service, and community, participants encountered the richness of Dominican life and explored God’s call in their lives.

Despite storms and unexpected challenges, the experience deepened their sense of belonging to a larger community of prayer and mission, leaving them with renewed hope, meaningful connections, and the assurance that they are held in prayer as they continue discerning God’s invitation.

2026 Jubilarians

We are blessed to celebrate more than 40 women whose shared 2,785 years of faithful service testify to lives given in love to God’s people.

Our Commitment to the Dominican Way Of Life

The Dominican Sisters of Peace and our Associates warmly welcome you to join us along a journey toward a more peaceful, equitable, and just tomorrow.

In keeping with the four pillars of the Dominican Charism, Prayer, Study, Community and Service, our Sisters around the world show our love of God through our service to God’s people. Our multi-cultural, multi-generational Congregation serves in 27 dioceses across the United States and in Nigeria.

As members of the worldwide Order of Preachers, we share the Gospel of Christ’s peace through our words and through our lives.

Who are the Dominicans?

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.
