Light
through Community
For Dominicans, the communal dimension of our religious life requires us to be of
"one mind and one heart in God." Profession into the Order of Preachers includes the promise to hold all
things in common. We live together and pray together and share a common work in the ministry of
preaching. It was St Dominic's desire to imitate the apostolic poverty of Jesus and the early Church, so
"we call nothing our own." As Dominicans, we share the blessings God has bestowed on us with the rest of
the world.

Dominicans center their lives on Jesus Christ, the true light, and
are moved by the Holy Spirit who radiates God's healing presence in the world today. We
celebrate the Word in daily common prayer, meditation, study, and in the proclamation that is
preaching. Our lives are nourished by God's Word as spoken in sacred scripture, celebrated in
the Eucharist, and encountered in everyday life.
