In the Great Family of St. Dominic






Our Congregation belongs to the large religious family founded by Saint Dominic. The Order of Preachers “has been established, from the beginning, for the purpose of preaching and the salvation of souls” (Primitive Constitutions of the Order of Preachers, Prologue). The Holy Spirit, always at work in his Church, inspired Mother Columba Białecka to establish a new religious community. Faithful to the charism she received, the Foundress desired that the community operate for the good of the Church by proclaiming the truth of the Gospel.
