We are truly blessed to have such generous and loyal support from so many donors. Thank you for valuing the mission and ministry of the Dominican Sisters of Houston and for allowing us to carry out our work for the people of God. May God bless you, heal you, and fill you with light. Thank you!
Annual Fund
Your gift to our Partners in Mission Annual Fund furthers our mission by having a real and tangible impact on our ministries. Annual fund gifts allow us to further our justice ministry by collaborating with others to alleviate the harm done by human trafficking, racial injustice, the death penalty, and the unjust treatment of workers, immigrants, and the environment. Gifts also support our mission school, San Vicente de Paul Bethania, located in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Guatemala City. The annual fund is the primary means of charitable support for the congregation.

Guatemala Mission School
Since 1984, the Dominican Sisters of Houston have sponsored San Vicente de Paul Bethania School in Guatemala City. The school is in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Guatemala City, but against tremendous odds, the children at our school continue to succeed. Gifts help ensure every child at our school will have breakfast in the morning, medical attention when needed, and the opportunity to stay in school and end the cycle of poverty into which they were born. We rely on the generosity of others to help ensure that San Vicente will continue to educate these precious children to better their lives and those of their family. The cost of educating a child at the school is about $31 per month or $375 a year. Please consider sponsoring a child’s education or giving a gift in any amount you choose to ensure our school’s success.
