The Dominican Secular Institute of Orleans
The Dominican Secular Institute of Orleans is a community of women living the evangelical counsels in the midst of the world. We live in our secular environments and pursue our vocation in daily life. In accordance with the teaching of St Dominic, we strive to proclaim Christ "to everyone, always and in every way, and when it is no longer possible otherwise, even in words". We want our lives to be a clear sign of God's presence in the world to others, but without revealing that we have fully consecrated our lives to God through the vows of chastity, poverty and obedience.

The Retreats in England
Cini, Veronica and I spent our English Group Retreat at St Paul's Convent again the last week in August. Our topic was Synodality and Mission. We took Readings from the Acts of the Apostles for our Lectio Divina in the mornings and studied the Final Report on Synodality in the afternoons. We said the office and the rosary daily and watched some videos made by Shalom World in the evenings. Cini works for this religious broadcasting company full time all over Europe.
