Come and See
This Weekend
This Weekend
I’m doing final touches in preparation for this weekend’s
Come
and See! The Sisters and I are
excited and looking forward to meeting those of you who will be with us. We have kept each one of you in our
prayers!
This is an exciting ‘new time’ in the
history of religious life! There is a growing desire among many Catholic
adults to belong to something greater than themselves, building
relationships within the context of a Catholic community; to know God at a
deeper level through prayer; to open minds and hearts through study; and to
serve where the need is great.
The Four Charisms of Dominican
Life: Community, Prayer, Study and Service offer the perfect platform to
fill this hunger. The Women who will be with us for the Come and See
Weekend will have an opportunity to experience the Dominican charism around:
· Community ~ We come together to give witness
to Gospel values. In community, we are continually shaped, supported, and
challenged.
· Prayer ~ It is in our prayer that we celebrate the Word of
God and allow ourselves to be formed and sent forth by that Word.
· Study ~ The Dominican emphasis on study opens our hearts and
minds more fully to discover how God is revealed in the created world and in
each other.
· Ministry ~ Our service is as diverse and creative
as are the gifts and talents of our members. New ventures as well as
long-standing commitments give witness to a faithful ingenuity and creativity.
Here’s a preview of some of the things
that are waiting for you:
