Sponsored Ministry General Information

From the Racine Dominican Mission

Through various ministries, the Dominican sisters seek to proclaim truth and promote justice

• by holding the world in prayerful solidarity;

• by addressing immediate needs of those oppressed and alienated by injustice;

• changing unjust attitudes, structures, and systems through education and other forms of constructive influence;

• by helping to affect actual advances toward fuller justice whenever it is within our power to do so. (Constitution 8.1)

Direction Statements  |  Chapter 2014

God’s call and our desire as Racine Dominicans is to engage wisdom and embrace the evolving future.  Therefore we will:

• live our mission, Committed to Truth; Compelled to Justice, by collaborating courageously with others to address societal needs.

• commit to grow as a hope-filled, contemplative presence actively engaged in a world hungry for meaning and basic human rights.

• engage in an over-arching study regarding our legacy: people, sponsored ministries, properties, and finances.

• engage in intentional discussions about membership issues and associate relationship.
