Three sisters share their reflections on making almsgiving more than clicking the donate button.

Throughout Lent, join us in learning about the Dominican family.

Is this blessed and broken universe and all it contains, all it ever contained, the body of Christ? Even today?  

As Dominic modeled, being a member of the Order of Preachers means letting faith shine through all aspects of one’s being and one’s life. May we face today’s challenges with Dominic’s courage and rich faith.

Three sisters share ways to grow in holiness during Lent, aside from giving up your favorite food or dessert.

That encounter taught me that I/we are often the ones who need to reach out and include, rather than exclude. We are the ones who must truly be the tender, healing touch of the God we say we believe in.

Finding the time and space –let alone quiet– can be a task in itself, not to mention cultivating focus and connection. 

It was the path Jesus embarked upon and it is the path that we too must embrace as we enter into these final days of Lent.

As I reflect this Lent on the early discovery of the immensity of the nature of this Mother Earth both in her mountain and ocean, it gives me a new understanding of Hope.

Whose feet need washing in our world? This is ours to do.

Take some time out today and pray with these three reflections and accompanying music/poetry.
