Who are the Dominican Nuns? Premieres today!

When people hear that the Order of Preachers includes cloistered nuns, many scratch their heads - huh?! The puzzlement deepens when they learn how the nuns came to be: that Our Holy Father Dominic was moved with compassion for the salvation of souls, but before he sent out his first Friars Preachers, Divine Providence led him to found a monastery of women who would be the first Nuns of the Order of Preachers. After all, how can a person preach if he or she never goes outside the walls of their home? What do cloistered Dominican nuns do all day? Who are the Dominican nuns and what place do we have in the Church and Order of Preachers?

We are excited to invite you to the premiere of a new short video we’ve produced: “Who are the Dominican nuns?” It will premiere on both YouTube and Facebook today at 4 p.m.
