Dominican nuns

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As well as the friars, Dominican sisters , also known as the Order of Preachers, live their lives supported by four common values, often referred to as the Four Pillars of Dominican Life, they are: community life, common prayer, study, and service. St. Dominic called this four-fold pattern of life the "holy preaching."
