harmony with the Mission and Vision of the Adrian Dominican
Congregation which serves on the prophetic edge of our
church and world. I promise to give, receive and listen,
to be and bring peace, to continue to weave threads
of relationship, and to travel an authentic Dominican
spiritual path as did our sisters who have gone before
us. My desire is to walk lightly on the earth, to live
fully our common life as an Adrian Dominican Sister,
and to take my place in the worldwide Dominican family.”
