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.
16th Sunday in Ordinary Time
In this homily for the 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A), we reflect on the theme “Mercy and Justice: Choosing the Better Part in Christ.” Through the Gospel account of Martha and Mary (Luke 10:38–42), we learn that true discipleship begins by listening to Jesus. God’s mercy transforms our hearts, while His justice calls us to live with integrity, compassion, and love. Drawing from the readings, we see that welcoming Christ into our lives enables us to serve others with wisdom and humility. May this reflection inspire us to choose what truly matters—remaining close to Christ, the source of all mercy, justice, and peace.
Sunday Reflections
Insights of St. Thomas Aquinas offer a profound lens through which we explore the Sunday readings. Here, we share reflections rooted in his teachings, inviting a deeper understanding of scripture and faith.
