Dominican Sisters of the Presentation

Global Locations

Today, more than 305 years after our foundation,  with 2,800 sisters, our Congregation can be found in 36 countries enriched by diverse races, cultures and nationalities. Its strength is that we are a miracle of grace when we witness our sisters ability to become inculturated in the different areas of our world becoming one with the various values, mentalities, and activities of different peoples.

Charism and history, event and grace, humble perseverance and limitless trust, were not only present at the time of the foundation in 1696, but during every moment of evolution and development of the Congregation. They are present in every page of the Congregation's long history and wears the face of each country.

Although all these cultures might be different, we are all rooted in the same charism that desires to be at the service of the Church in the exercise of Charity. Each country enriches our charism with its unique character and affirms its guidelines and projects its own identity. Daily hundreds of our sisters in community try to make real an effective charity in action, that receives its life from a deep personal relationship with God which enables them to be a part of a living history that seeks to make Gospel charity more visible in our world. This is our richness. It reveals the magnanimity of God's gift and freedom of the Spirit for the good of His Church.
