Dominican Friars

of Eastern Africa

A community called to preach Jesus Christ as part of the
worldwide mission of the Order of Preachers

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.

The reflection for the 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A, invites us to contemplate the abundance of God’s grace through the Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard (Matthew 20:1–16). Unlike human systems that measure reward according to effort, God’s generosity flows from His mercy and love. Grace is not a wage we earn but a gift freely given. The reflection challenges us to overcome comparison, envy and entitlement, and instead rejoice in God’s goodness towards others. Drawing from Isaiah 55:8, we are reminded that God’s ways are beyond our human calculations. His invitation remains open, and it is never too late to respond to His grace.

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.
