The essence of what it means...

"...to be a Dominican Sister of St. Cecilia is summarized in the community’s Ratio Institutionis, which outlines our program of initial and ongoing formation. Our charism is defined by the following characteristics:


"Contemplative Focus


"An Active Apostolate


"Strong Community Life


"Love of the Church and Traditional Religious Life"



"Several times a year we have Vocation Retreats for those who are discerning their vocation (the next one is May 21-25, 2008).... If you are interested in attending this retreat, contact the Vocation Director to sign up. Call us if you are interested in an informal Weekend Vocation Retreat experience to expose you to our life and prayer."
