Video Text
In God’s eyes, your life stretches between a promise and its fulfillment, a promise from before you were born and the fulfillment that is still in your hands. The Scripture clearly shows that both correspond perfectly.
Following the footsteps of Abraham of years ago, and his faith journey, you need to explore how God speaks to your heart and what is, in fact, the “promised land” for your life’s journey.
The promise of your life’s vocation already buds in your heart. Will you let it blossom to completion? Time and again God reassured Abraham to trust unfailingly and to proceed confidently until the goal was achieved.
Visit the Dominican Sisters of the Immaculate Conception and discover that God also speaks to your heart, and that His plans are full of peace and purpose.
Jesus Christ said, “You are the salt of the earth.” What does this mean? A new video by the Dominican sisters features features a salt shaker shaped like a religious sister and the words of Christ, “You are the salt of the earth. Bring Christ to a world that has lost its flavor.”

The 43-second video has been viewed 45 times in less than two hours since it was launched on Gloria.TV. Watch the video at left.
