The Four Pillars of
Dominican
Life
MISSION:
We have as our vocation to radiate the presence of Christ in the midst of all, so that the divine message of salvation is known and accepted by everyone.
COMMUNITY:
To preach the kingdom of God we must live it, so that preaching and living in Christian community are inseparably joined.
STUDY:
The study of the Word of God is an aid to prayer but in itself also becomes an act of worship which sanctifies us.
PRAYER:
Dominican prayer is contemplative, which means that it is not limited to mental meditative deliberations but leads to total acquiescence in the presence of God as St. Dominic showed us in his nine ways of prayer.
