Heartland Farm, a sponsored ministry of the Dominican Sisters of Peace, in Pawnee Rock, Kansas, hosted a day camp for 19 children ages 8 to 11 the week of June 1. This year’s camp theme was “Earth, Air, Fire and Water.” Each day featured activities and games related to one of the elements, and Friday the children were shown the connection of all of them through the “Web of Life.” Four Dominican Sisters of Peace live and work at Heartland Farm: Jane Belanger, OP; Mary Ellen Dater, OP; Marilyn Pierson, OP; and Rene Weeks, OP.

The bees have arrived at Mariandale Retreat and Conference Center. On Friday, April 24, the sisters and staff welcomed two hives of bees onto campus. In 2014, the sisters along with residents, gardeners, friends, neighbors, and beekeepers, helped to create a new law that allows bees and beekeeping in their Village of Ossining, New York. “We are tending our own bees as part of creating a sustainable and hospitable environment,” Dominican Sister of Hope Bette Ann Jaster said. “We are interested in restoring natural habitats on our campus, which add to the diversity, abundance, and productivity of the land.” Read more, view more photos More

These students were the latest group who attended one of our youth preaching workshops. They learned how to bring to life their baptismal call to “preach the Good News” by using the gifts and talents that have been given to them by our loving God. More
