Dominican Nuns at Corpus Christi Monastery, Menlo Park

Dominican Nuns at Corpus Christi Monastery, Menlo Park Contemplative women living a life hidden with Christ in God and in Mary, within the Order of Preachers. Our mission is to Praise, to Preach and to Bless God.

We love souls! As Dominican nuns, we proclaim Jesus Christ by our purely contemplative life of praise, prayer and sacrifice, for the salvation of souls. Our whole life is harmoniously ordered to the continual remembrance of God. The pillars of our life are: Prayer (liturgical and private), Community life, Preaching through our vows, and the Study of Sacred Truth. The Nuns of the Order of Preachers came into being when our holy father Saint Dominic gathered women converts to the Catholic faith in the monastery of Blessed Mary of Prouille in 1206. These women, free for God alone, he associated with his “holy preaching” by their prayer and penance. Finally, he entrusted them as part of the same Order to the fraternal concern of his sons. We count it all joy to seek God's face for the salvation of souls, to joyfully offer Him praise, to intercede for the Church and our brothers and sisters in the Order, and to carry the weak, downtrodden and afflicted in our hearts before the tabernacle of our Lord.
