| Welcome
to our Congregation |
|
Our Congregation, the Dominican Sisters of the Regina Rosarii,
is a community of consecrated women called to be Salt of the
Earth. The founding community, composed of Sister Mary Carmen
C. Advincula, OP., Sister Mary Amelia F. Brasil, OP., Sister
Mary Matthew F. Brasil, OP., Sister Mary Epifania F. Brasil,
OP., Sister Mary Violeta P. Sobremisana, OP., and Sister Mary
Sarah R. Ronda, OP., were former members of the Dominican
Sisters of the Most Holy Rosary of the Philippines.
They heard the call of the Spirit to start a new branch of
the Dominican family where they can be contemplative witnesses,
following Jesus, Friend of the Poor and Healer of the Broken.
They responded to the call to live a consecrated life that
is more contemplative and more trusting in God’s Providence
 |
After twenty months of serious prayer and discernment,
they formally asked to be released from their affiliation
with the former congregation on May 5, 2005. They moved
on with the blessings of their former Prioress General,
Rev. Mo. Felicitas Macsera, OP. On the feast of Our Lady
of Fatima, May 13, 2005, the founding community was blessed
and accepted by Rev. Fr. Edmund Nantes, OP., Prior Provincial
of the Dominican Province of the Philippines at Bahay
Dominiko, Quezon City. Their first residence was at the
Regina Rosarii Center for Contemplative Prayer, then located
at 55 Scout Santiago St., Timog, Quezon City. |
| They were under the protection of the Most
Rev. Fernando Capalla, DD., Archbishop of Davao and at
that time President of the Catholic Bishops Conference
of the Philippines (CBCP) whose formal protection letter
came on July 2, 2005. |

meditation garden. This worship site
is considered as the gift of Mama Mary to the Regina
Rosarii community on the occasion of its first anniversary
of its foundation. It is also our offering to the Quezon
City, an urban community that needs a constant reminder
of a mother’s love for her Son, and the Father’s
love for humanity.
The meditation garden is open for personal visits and
prayer 4:00 – 6:30 PM everyday. For group visits

| PROJECT
SACREDspace |
| The whole world is a SACREDspace. Creation
is filled with the goodness of God. Every stone, every
flower, every raindrop reminds us of the divine. That
is our belief. This is our mission. To help people recognize
that God is found everywhere, and every time we seek Him. |

The project SACREDspace is
a flagship program that was born during the Founding
Chapter of the Dominican Sisters of Regina Rosarii.
It aims to utilize modern media of communications to
bring the gift of contemplative life to the world.

Eppie Brasil, OP. The CD contains the songs SACREDspace,

this CD is a valuable tool to help busy people enter
into silence and solitude.
SACREDspace online:

the netizens, the regular community who live in he virtual
world of the internet. Through this website, we hope
to attract young people to be lay contemplatives today.

through the Reginarosa text service, this offers contemplative
messages daily to nourish the spirit of a cellphone
user, most probably trapped in a busy lifestyle.
In the future, the project wants to explore new media

and more. |
