WELCOME BIENVENUE CHÀO MỪNG KARIBU
We have arrived. We have been welcomed. We have only just started the process of settling in. As we begin our time together, we take a contemplative moment to encounter each other on our shared path of discernment and to celebrate this new community in gratitude for the presence and cultural diversity of each member. Knowing that the coming days are full of transition and orientation, we invite you to pray for us and with us.
During this sacred time, we are making our introductions to a new life in community with each other, and we look forward to sharing those introductions with you in the following days.

Ever present God,
we thank you for the call to mission
as Dominican women.
Deepen in us our discipleship
in the Word of God.
Empower us to contemplate
the Word of God in prayer,
integrate it within every aspect of our life,
and preach it to the world.
Continue to bless us with new members
who have a passion for your Word
and the prophetic courage
to preach it to others.
Shower your graces upon those
in the initial process of becoming Dominican,
especially those sharing life and mission
in the Collaborative Dominican Novitiate.
We ask this through the intercession
of our holy father Dominic,
our sister Catherine,
and our Maryknoll foundress Mother Mary Joseph.

Amen.
