Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.

The proper effect of the Eucharist is the transformation of man into God.

Our way of Life

Our Mission

Our mission is Preaching for the salvation of souls. We have been called to proclaim the Gospel to every corner of the world, so that every soul may come to know and love Jesus Christ.

The Vows

Poverty, obedience and chastity make us men who try to consecrate ourselves for the adventure of the Kingdom of God.

The Four Pillars

The Dominican Spirituality is most times described in terms of our four pillars: prayer, study, community and ministry.

Quotes

The most important question we need to ask ourselves is: how best are we to love God above all things and how best are we to love our neighbor in our community life and apostolic life?The question goes to the very heart of our Christain vocation: How do I love? how do we love? Every other question is secondary and must be related to this primary question.

Anthony Akinwale, OP. 6th Dominican Provincial Chapter, 2017

A Dominican is a canon by profession, a monk in austerity of his life, and an apostle by his office.

Stephen of Salanhac, OP.

Our communual life of faith is a deep manifestaion of our commitment to our common life and our Dominican Spirituality. However, we must beware that your external practices of faith do not outweigh our internal/interior practices of faith.

Jude Ibeh, OP. Homily

Interior silence and habitual recollection create the environment for super-natural contact. Mental disturbance is a hinderance to interior prayer. That disturbance is the consequence of our immersion in the life of the world that has little or no interest in mysticism.
