Prayer Vocations Apostolate Charism Community News Motherhouse Building Project


The bell sounded a steady death toll at the Motherhouse of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia when news was received of the Holy Father's death.  The Sisters immediately assembled in the chapel to pray the Rosary for their beloved Pontiff.  In the week following the Pope's death, the Sisters prayed the Office of the Dead and offered Mass for the repose of the soul of the Holy Father.  They also prayed all twenty decades of the Rosary in community for the Pope.  Pope John Paul II will be fondly remembered for all times, and memories of his strong leadership and commitment to holiness will be treasured always.
