Dear Friends and Benefactors of the Dominican Nuns,

Our hearts are filled with gratitude and joy as we give thanks to God for His abundant blessings, and to you for your steadfast support of our contemplative Dominican life.

We are writing to you, our family, friends, and benefactors who benefited from the prayers of the nuns, loved the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in our Hollywood chapel, and enjoyed the delicious pumpkin bread and candies produced at the monastery. After a long, prayerful discernment process, the Dominican nuns of the Monastery of the Angels in Hollywood sold the land in February 2026 and joined the Dominican nuns of Corpus Christi Monastery in Menlo Park, located in Northern California. It is here that the ministry of prayers for your special needs and intentions continues.

We invite you to visit us online at www.opnunsmenlo.org, follow our activities, visit our online gift shop, and continue to send your prayer intentions and gifts in support of our life of prayer for the salvation of souls.

In thanksgiving and as a special gift of our deep appreciation, we will be offering a Novena of Masses for you and your loved ones – both living and deceased – from May 29 th through June 6 th, Corpus Christi Sunday, June 7, 2026

Mass followed by Benediction at 10:30 a.m.
Corpus Christi Monastery
215 Oak Grove Avenue, Menlo Park, California 94025

Once again, we thank you for your loving support and invite you to keep in contact via email and send your petitions to DominicaNuns@OPNunsmenlo.org.
