Insights into the Dominican Sisters’ Works

You are cordially invited as a guest of CDF to attend the Melbourne Catholic Professionals Luncheon, featuring a keynote presentation by Sr. Mary Sarah Galbraith OP.

Sr Mary is a Dominican Sister of St Cecilia and the local superior of the Dominican Sisters in Bacchus Marsh and is currently the principal at St Bernard’s Primary School in Bacchus Marsh. Last year, she celebrated 33 years as a religious sister.

Outside of school, the Dominican Sisters run the Lamps Alight ministry in collaboration with the Anima Women’s Network. This ministry focuses on the dignity of women in the Church, including in their roles as spouses and mothers, in intellectual life, in the political sphere and in other areas of public life.

Sr Mary Sarah also assists with a group for Catholic school teachers, where they discuss the beauty of teaching in light of the Catholic Tradition, and with a local faith-formation group for families in Bacchus Marsh.
