Ninth General Chapter
NINTH GENERAL CHAPTER
OF THE
DOMINICAN SISTERS OF EASTERN AUSTRALIA
AND
THE SOLOMON ISLANDS
During this time of preparation all sisters are called to participate through prayer and reflection.
AT THE TABLE WITH DOMINIC
O God,
we know that our sharing at Dominic’s table
has already be blessed
by You,
by our pioneer women,
by our sisters, who have passed on the stories
from generation to generation,
from country to country.
Now as we prepare for our Chapter
we call again on collective Wisdom
to enrich us with both memory and foresight.
Widen our minds as we create a safe space
to share our voices and the weaving of our stories.
Open our eyes to the sincerity of all with whom we sit.
Let us eat slowly and drink deeply
from words savoured, stirred, tossed and dreamed.
May our hearts burn within us as we recognise
the presence of Your son Jesus among us,
urging us on. Amen
