Lay Dominicans Fraternity is an initiative that came from the Order of Preachers to bring together lay people who are associated with the vision and mission of the order.

The idea is to bring everyone together to participate in the preaching mission of the Dominican order, which is the preaching of Christ to enable the lay people to bear witness to the gospel of Christ wherever they find themselves.
