As Dominican women, rooted in our charism of preaching, and inspired by the urgency of the Gospel, we recognise that the heart of our Mission is evangelisation.

We willingly respond to this call to evangelise
  • in a spirit of courage to be pioneers
  • with openness to learn from others
  • with respect for the richness of the culture of others
  • by realising the need for greater collaboration
  • by a willingness to be in solidarity with the marginalised,
exploited and oppressed, and especially with women
and children who are victims of abuse
 
Aware that community life is central to mission, we are drawn towards and fed by community life, and at the same time called away from community to respond to the needs of others.
 
This is what Yahweh asks of you
only this, to act justly,
to love tenderly
and to walk humbly
with your God
                                          Micah 6.8
 
We are committed in our mission to preaching in its many forms. We have a burning desire to spread the Kingdom of God and to inculcate Gospel values into the fabric of our society.
