Women's Discernment Event

January 6 - 9, 2022 These four-day retreats are designed for single Catholic women ages 17 - 30 who are discerning their vocation and provide an opportunity for them to explore the life and charism of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia. Those on retreat attend talks on St. Dominic, St. Cecilia, Marian Devotion, discernment and the formation process. Panels on vocations and the apostolate allow retreatants to hear testimonies and ask questions. Retreatants join the Novitiate for recreation, enter into the monastic customs of the community, and go on a tour of several schools of the Congregation. For more information contact Sister Mara Grace, O.P. at 615.256.0147 or vocation@op-tn.org Website: nashvilledominican.org facebook.com/dominicansistersofsaintcecilia Current Dominican Sisters Newsletter
