The friars
of the Western Dominican Province warmly welcome you to our
website. In 1850, two friars and one sister headed West to
California to begin new Dominican roots and share our Catholic
faith. We seek to preach
the truth and be servants of the people of God. Please explore our menu seen at the top of our web pages.
There are over 1,000 web pages in this site, links to
over twenty other web sites of various ministries in our
province, and links to other interesting external sites as well. We hope
you enjoy your visit and invite you to visit often, as we are
always releasing new featured stories, videos, photos, and news.
