Mission Groups Meet this Spring
The planning committee, Sisters Barbara Harrington, JoAnn Hohenbrink, Rene Weeks and Carol Davis are excited about the unfolding plans for our Spring Mission Group meetings.
Both Sisters and Associates are invited to be part of the morning session of the meeting.
Please choose to attend one of the two options for these Zoom meetings, Sisters full day, Associates half day:
Dates: Saturday, March 22nd or Monday March 24th
Time: 10 AM – 3:30PM Eastern time
Time: 10 AM – 3:30PM Eastern time
Please click here to register for the Spring Mission Group meeting. Sisters will register for the whole day. Associates will register for the morning, which begins promptly at 10 am and concludes at noon Eastern time.
Once you have selected your date, be sure to mark your calendar. We will send reminders as we get closer to the meeting date.
Both days have identical programs and will include break-out groups, therefore, it is best if you have one person or no more than two people at an individual computer. We know from experience it is easier to see and talk with just one or two people at a time on a screen.
Looking forward to this time together. We especially need each other during these challenging times moving forward as Dominican Sisters and Associates of Peace.

"Zoom and See" Begins Today
The weekend gathering begins this evening for a dozen or more women from across the country who are joining with us virtually for the "Zoom and See" Discernment Retreat.
Our theme is “Listen to Your Heart” and the gathering includes times for prayer, conversation with our Sisters in formation, presentations about discernment, the call to religious life, and Dominican spirituality and charism.
We ask for prayer for everyone involved in this retreat, including our Sisters who are participating.
In The Media
Please see the winter issue of O'Palette here. It includes a nice contribution from Associate John Mascazine that focuses on stained glass.
Prayer Requests
- Associate Paul Bonitatibus (Metairie, LA, pbonitatibus@cox.net) requests prayer for a friend, Marti McDonald Peden, who has entered hospice care. Mary Martha was a former student of Sister Margaret Ormond and Sister Mathias at Steubenville’s Catholic Central High School.
- Associate Joe Perez (Garden City, KS, joevp777@gmail.com) is asking for prayer for repose of soul for Caughty Hernandez (the father of grandson Isaiah). Caughty passed away yesterday and Caughty's father, Nat, died last week. The request is to pray for loved ones during this difficult time.
