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.

Good Shepherd Sunday - Year A

On Good Shepherd Sunday, this reflection invites us to recognize and follow the voice of Christ in a noisy world. It highlights vocation as a gift from God, discovered through prayer, silence, and a personal relationship with Him. Drawing from Scripture, the message reminds us that every calling—whether to family life, priesthood, religious life, or service—is a response to God’s loving invitation. As many voices compete for our attention, we are challenged to ask which voice we follow. The Good Shepherd’s voice is gentle yet firm, calling us by name and leading us toward a life of purpose, trust, and deeper faith.

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.
