With “friendship and fun” at the center of the menu, our annual fundraising dinner and auction has become one of the best ways for us to meet our friends and benefactors and glimpse God’s joy and grace alive in our community. The East Meets West Annual Gala event blends the beauty of our eastern heritage with the blessings of the west through an entertaining evening of food, auction items, music and more. Get on board as a guest or jump aboard as a sponsor for this uplifting event that provides funds for the pursuit of higher education of our sisters.

This Annual Gala is a fitting opportunity for us to express our heartfelt gratitude in recognizing an individual or organization who has shared in the great endeavor of the congregation's mission.  It is the mission of educating and empowering students of all ages to a path of pure holiness in building the Kingdom of God here on earth.

The recipients of Living the Dominican Legacy Award are commendable for their outstanding commitment to education, igniting the Flame of Truth for the world.  Through their significant and generous support, the Dominican Sisters' gowth in faith, assiduous studies, religious vocation and ministry of preaching are made possible.
