In this reflection, Jeff Koch explores the mystery of the Trinity not as a doctrine to be perfectly explained, but as a relationship to be experienced. Through Scripture and everyday faith, he invites us to encounter the loving presence of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—and to reflect that same unity, mercy, and grace within our own communities.

We talk the talk, we walk the walk 🚶🏼‍♀️

Ahead of World Environment Day, Sr. Gemma Doll joined the final three miles of the Great Ohio Climate March on May 28. The march, which began in Athens two weeks earlier, aimed to raise awareness about fracking in state parks and pollution linked to data centers.

Sr. Ann and Sr. Kathy, Benedictines from Erie, Pennsylvania, also participated in the walk. Following the march’s conclusion at the Ohio Statehouse, participants met with representatives and senators to advocate on current environmental legislation under consideration. 🌎🚶‍♀️💚

On May 28, the Albertus Magnus College community gathered in the Contemplative Garden to celebrate Sister Cathy Buchanan, O.P. and thank her for the incredible impact she has had on outhe campus.
Loved deeply by Albertus students, Sr. Cathy served as Campus Minister and was a constant source of kindness and faith. She also led the Dominican Impact Group (DIG), a campus organization dedicated to serving the Albertus Magnus College community by practicing the four Dominican pillars: prayer, community, study, and service.
Through her work and ministry, Sr. Cathy created meaningful connections across campus and made so many students feel seen during some of the most important years of their lives.
The Dominican Sisters of Peace are blessed with Sr. Cathy in our community, and eager to see where her leads.

From the Archives Friday 💜

As we approach Gun Violence Awareness Month this June, we remember Sr. Catherine “Kay” Burland, OP (1934–2018), a faithful sister of St. Mary of the Springs whose life witnessed both the pain of violence and the power of perseverance.

A devoted teacher in Ohio and New York, Sr. Kay was seriously wounded by gun violence in Columbus in 1968. After a long recovery, she continued her ministry through office work, served as a school librarian, and later volunteered for many years at Mohun before becoming a resident there.

Her story calls us to pray, to remember, and to work for a more peaceful world.

In this thought-provoking reflection, Keith Funk invites us to look beyond common assumptions about heaven and rediscover the larger hope woven throughout Scripture. Drawing from Revelation, the teachings of Jesus, and the writings of Paul, he explores God’s vision of restoration, renewal, and new creation—a future that is not simply about leaving earth behind, but about God making all things new.

The Peace Center recently celebrated two special occasions during a festive luncheon: Mother’s Day and the 100th birthday of Mabel Harris Thomas!

Mabel’s centennial celebration has been going strong all month, including a visit from members of the Krewe of Zulu, who gifted her a beautiful commemorative umbrella featuring places significant to her life — including St. Mary’s Dominican College, where she earned her Special Education Teacher’s Certification.

During the luncheon, friends at the Peace Center shared gifts, cards, and a proclamation from the Mayor and City Council honoring Mabel’s remarkable life and legacy.

Happy 100th Birthday, Mabel! 🎉

Community is at the heart of Dominican life. ❤️

As one of the four pillars of the Dominican Charism, community shapes every stage of life for the Dominican Sisters of Peace — from discernment through retirement and beyond.

Whether at our Houses of Welcome in Connecticut and Ohio or at our Motherhouses and Health Centers in Kansas, Kentucky, and Ohio, our sisters walk together in prayer, mission, and daily life.

Sr. Andre Kravec, OP, who grew up as an only child, reflected on the beauty of community living:
“I’ve always felt respected and appreciated, and what more could you want?”

Read more in our Annual Report and learn how you can support our sisters living in community every step of the way (https://oppeace.org/2026/04/10/called-to-community-in-every-season-of-dominican-life/). Thank you for being part of this mission of peace.
