Come and spend some time with us praying and talking with our Sisters, sharing with other women of FAITH, discovering God’s PURPOSE for your life, and enjoying an experience of COMMUNITY LIFE while exploring RELIGIOUS LIFE lived out as a Dominican Sister of Peace.

During this retreat, you will have time for quiet personal prayer and reflection, and there will be presentations on the discernment process and about the Dominican Sisters of Peace.

"Be Who God Meant You to Be, and You Will Set the World on Fire." (St. Catherine of Siena)

Your journey begins with learning more about religious life, more about the Dominican Sisters of Peace, and entering a process of discernment – of determining God’s desire for your life.

As you learn more and discover more aspects about yourself, we invite you to bring your discernment to prayer and to allow the Holy Spirit to work in you. And remember: all of the answers may not be found on the confines of a website; we are always physically here to discuss your calling – simply contact us at any time.
