Become a Sister
Could God be calling you to join us?
Do you dream of doing something more with your life? Are you longing for deeper meaning and sometimes feel that there is more to life than what you are currently doing? Maybe God is inviting you to explore becoming a Dominican Sister of Peace. Share your gifts with others who want to make a difference in the world. If these questions touch your heart, perhaps God is nudging you to explore this option for your life. Why not enter into a discernment process that will give you some clarity. It may just give you a place to be part of a community at the service of others in the Catholic Church.
