๐Ÿ’œ September is Su***de Prevention Month.

A moment of crisis can be temporary, but access to a highly lethal means can make that moment deadly.

About 90% of su***de attempts involving a firearm result in death, and roughly half of su***de attempts happen within 10 minutes of the decision to attempt. Creating time and distance can create an opportunity for a person in crisis to choose life.

As people of faith, we are called to be a compassionate and welcoming presence to those who are struggling. Every life is precious. Every moment matters. Every one of us can help create a path toward hope.

If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

๐Ÿ“œ From the Archives Friday

The Dominican Sisters have a long and meaningful history of mission in Arizona!

In May 1939, the Sisters answered the call of Bishop Gercke of the Diocese of Tucson to serve the Mexican and Mexican-American communities of Arizona. Over the years, the Sisters would minister in eight cities across the state, primarily through education and healthcare.

Their presence was a testament to the Dominican call to meet the needs of the community and serve Godโ€™s people wherever they were needed. ๐Ÿ’œ

We are grateful for the Sisters who helped shape these communities and for the legacy of their ministry that continues to inspire us today.

๐ŸŽก๐ŸŒฝ A County Fair Close to Home! ๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ

Sisters from the Columbus Motherhouse and Mohun Care Center discovered a little slice of county fair fun right in their own backyard at the Martin de Porres Center last week!

There were games of skill, raffle prizes, mini corn dogs, funnel cakes, soft pretzels, and plenty of smiles. ๐ŸŽฏ๐Ÿฅจ๐Ÿฟ

It was a delightful afternoon filled with laughter and fun, but the best part? Spending time together, enjoying community, and making new memories. ๐Ÿ’œ

A special thank you to Salt and Light Campus Ministry students from Ohio Dominican University for sharing their time, energy, and companionship with us!
