What is Openlight Media?

Openlight Media is a dynamic digital platform created by the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist, dedicated to providing high-quality Catholic educational resources. It serves as a trusted portal for individuals, educators, and institutions seeking to deepen their faith and integrate virtue education into their lives or classrooms. With a focus on Catholic Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) and faith formation, Openlight Media offers a unique blend of video series, interactive tools, and professional development resources. 

Mission and Vision 

The mission of Openlight Media is to extend the Dominican order’s preaching and teaching charism into digital media, engaging users with the beauty, truth, and goodness of God. By nurturing an encounter with Jesus Christ through His Word, the platform fosters spiritual growth rooted in the Catholic faith. This aligns with the Dominican Sisters’ commitment to the new evangelization, as inspired by Saint John Paul II.
