OCTOBER 18, 2017 - PROFESSION OF SIMPLE VOWS

On the feast of St. Luke the Evangelist, October 18, Sister Elizabeth Marie of the Transfiguration made her First Profession of Vows in the hands of our prioress, Sister Marie Tersidis. It was a joyful day, and we are happy to share a few photos with you! Please pray for Sister Elizabeth Marie as she continues to follow Jesus in the footsteps of St. Dominic.

January 2017 - Meet: The Kora

The Kora is an instrument from West Africa that accompanies some of our liturgy, especially the New Testament canticles at Vespers. This clip is of Sister Elizabeth Marie and Carole, our kora teacher, playing a special composition during the offertory at Mass.

This video is showing the Kora being played at Queen of Peace Monastery
