The Dominican Vocation Office in Washington, DC is dedicated to promoting and fostering vocations to the Dominican Order. Established in 1216 by St. Dominic de Guzman, the Dominicans are a religious order committed to preaching and the salvation of souls. Through study, contemplation, and preaching, Dominican friars live out their vocation to be instruments in Christ's saving plan, seeking personal sanctification and working for the salvation of mankind.
The Vocation Office offers opportunities for young men who are seriously interested in the Dominican Order to experience life in one of their communities through Vocation Weekends at the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, DC. These weekends provide a first-hand experience of what it means to be a Dominican friar, allowing participants to step into their way of life. With a focus on glorifying God and striving for holiness, the Dominican Vocation Office invites individuals to explore their call to follow Jesus Christ in a particular way through the consecrated life and the priesthood.
