Dominican Family

Dominican Family Dominic founded the Order of Preachers, an order of men and women about 800 years ago in France, whose mission was to preach the Word of God.

The Dominican Family was founded in 2008 to continue the work of Dominic. Who is the Dominican Family? Today, the word “family” has many meanings. We speak of the nuclear family, the extended family, the blended family, the family of the Church and so on. What each has in common is the quality of “inclusion.” To be part of a family means you are included in that group. Therefore, to be a member of

the Dominican Family means you are included as a brother or sister in following the Dominican way of life. Join Us:
Lay Dominicans play an important role in the global Dominican Family. They are women and men - married, single, divorced and widowed who seek to live the Gospel message in their daily lives through relationships in their homes and workplaces. Our Dominican Family is made up of women and men who make a commitment to live life through a Dominican spirit, trying to live intentionally as Dominicans. Preaching the "Good News" through one's work, art and life is the essence of the Dominican Family.

Our March Gathering is Tomorrow

02/02/2026

Our new Immigration Action Committee will host our monthly gathering this evening. In response to our Directional Statement from Chapter and requests from family members at later gatherings, the committee has arranged for two speakers.

Gordon Quan, a nationally recognized immigration attorney, will speak on the current state of affairs from a legal perspective.

Monica Holtkamp, the executive director of Casa Mateo, will present to us about her work providing shelter for immigrant women and children who have fled their countries of origin.

Please join us as we explore our Chapter commitment! As usual, please arrive at 6pm to socialize with your fellow Dominican Family members. The program will start at 6:30pm.

Can’t attend in person? Check the flocknote for details for the online zoom option.

When you log on at 6:30 pm, you should be muted for the beginning prayer and presentations. Please stick around for table talk with fellow remote participants.

We are trying a new computer setup and hope the remote experience will be better!
