Become a Novice Prayer Partner
Praise God! Our Order continues to grow!
Pray for our 10 new novices!
On August 28, 2025, a new class of 10 novices will start their journey as Dominican friars! And they need your prayers.
Please sign up to become a Novice Prayer Partner and commit to offering the "Prayer for Vocations" on the day of Vestition (when the novices are dressed in the Dominican habit).
This year you also have the option of offering a decade of the Rosary, the Memorare, or a holy half-hour of prayer. Our nuns at Corpus Christi Monastery in Menlo Park have graciously agreed to match your prayers.
You'll receive a reminder email the day before with a prayer for Dominican vocations. You'll also receive a follow-up email after the Vestition ceremony, making you among the first to see our new novices in their Dominican habits and learn their religious names.
Most importantly, you'll be remembered on the Prayer Partner Honor Roll that hangs in the house chapel of St. Dominic's Priory in San Francisco. The novices see this everyday during the rosary when they offer prayers of thanksgiving for you.
After signing up, please pass the torch to your friends and invite them to become a prayer partner. Send them a message or an email with the link opwest.org/novice
