Who are we ?

The Dominican family is composed of Dominican Friars, Nuns, Sisters, Laity and Youths. We share a common heritage in the spirit and charism of St. Dominic. In Kenya, we are present in Nairobi and Kisumu Archdiocese and Ngong diocese. In Uganda, we are present at Kakumiro-Kibaale and Namugongo-Kampala.

4th Sunday of Advent - Year A

This Advent reflection for the 4th Sunday invites us to contemplate Emmanuel, God with us. It contrasts King Ahaz’s fear and reliance on human solutions with God’s call to trust His promise. Through the prophet Isaiah, God assures the continuation of His saving plan despite human doubt.
In the Gospel, St Joseph models quiet faith and obedience as he embraces God’s will without full understanding.
His response challenges us to trust God even in moments of confusion and uncertainty.
As Christmas draws near, we are invited to welcome Emmanuel with hearts rooted in faith, hope, and trust.
