“Is there anything lovelier than peace? Certainly not. This is the sweet testament and lesson Christ left to His disciples when He said: ‘You will be known as my disciples not by working miracles, nor by knowing the future, nor by showing great holiness in externals, but only by having charity, peace, and love for one another’ (John 13:35). …Put on true joy in yourselves, the fruit of peace and unity.” (From letter 171, to Niccolò Soderini).

Dear Sisters and Brothers,
May the words of Catherine, our star and teacher, help us to passionately rediscover the foundations of our Christian and Dominican life and to believe with confidence that, in God’s hands, the common journey of fidelity to our vocation is the greatest gift we can offer to a world thirsting for peace, that is, for God.
United in desire and prayer for peace, as we celebrate Saint Catherine!
A fraternal embrace,
sr Viviana Sisack and the sisters of the General Government
