Her Charism:  Born out of St. Dominic’s zeal to preach the Truth for the salvation of souls, this Sister strives to glorify God through a balance of contemplation, study, community life, and the active apostolates of education, catechesis, and healthcare services.  Her motto is “contemplate and share with others the fruits of that contemplation.”  With the Lord at her side, putting words in her mouth, she must preach and “set the world on fire.”
