We Serve, We Preach, We Contemplate





Each day of our lives is a perfect day to speak of what we truly believe and of what we must conceive. At this point of time, we are summoned; we are in for a mission, a mission that is incomplete hence to be fulfilled. The stronger the faith we possess, the further we discover each and every blessing given by our Father. The greater intellectual knowledge we have, the wonderful opportunities shall come for us to discover the meaning and purpose of every living thing. Generally, we are so much blessed in life that is enough to be considered as a good follower of Christ. In fact, Everyone of us is responsible of our own inclinations to conform with His divine will.


A Dominican preaches the Gospel true to Dominic’s calling of changing the world through his tireless preaching. Jesus Christ himself illustrates simplicity and humility that a person can find out through his/her idea of service. Man, in contrast could be one with Christ in simply following his example towards the people, proclaiming the good news and in the spirit of love and brotherhood among us.

The mere fact that we are living here in the Pre-Novitiate reminds us of our promise and fulfillment of service to the people who need our help. Remember that we are called by God to serve, to contemplate and to praise Him. Indeed, we are called to love and honor him wholeheartedly regardless of what is inside and outside At the end of the day, on this very day given by our Lord, let us bear in mind that for every second, every minute, every hour of our lives, we must dedicate the blessings we have received from our Lord in fulfilling our mission to preach the good news to the people, for the service of all mankind.
