The Dominican life is an invitation to a total consecration through apostolic ministry and community life by becoming "everything for everyone." The community life is both a challenge and a commitment because the Dominican community is a place of communal sharing, giving, and service in the example of our Founder, Father Dominic. The community life of the sisters finds its expression and growth in the full participation of worship and shared living, such as community meals, community recreation, silence, as well as contributing our personal efforts to the growth of the community and Province. This common life in charity and faith between the sisters provides a healthy balance in the journey of life. The community of love is constructed as a unity in diversity. The differences of age, cultural backgrounds, perception, and personal needs in the community are accepted and welcomed as honorable gifts that reflect Saint Dominic's ideal of the community life.
