PRAYER REQUESTS

One of the pillars of Dominican Life is prayer.  The power of prayer has been an important part of our tradition from the very beginning.  Dominic depended upon the prayer support of the nuns to further, strengthen and sustain the preaching ministry.  Prayer continues to be an important means of deepening our relationship with God, self and others.  We continue to rely on the prayers of the community to strengthen us for our ministry.

Many of our Sisters who are retired or infirmed have continued their ministry by becoming Ministers of Prayer.  They pray for the ministries and needs of the community, the Order, the Church and the world.  Time and time again we have seen the power of  the prayer of these Wisdom Women.

As they gather for communal prayer or for the celebration of  Mass, the prayer requests are included in their petitions.  We know that the needs of our world are many and the power of God is vast.  If you have a particular concern or need or special intention that you would like the Sisters to pray for, you  may e-mail your request to Sr. Teresa at webmaster@opkentucky.org   These requests will be forward to the Sisters at Sansbury Care Center and the motherhouse at St. Catharine, Kentucky and Rosary Manor in Watertown, Massachusetts.
