In this episode of Open Seat, we sit down with Sister Janice Brown, OP, an Adrian Dominican Sister, to talk about centering prayer, discernment, and following God’s call at any stage of life.
Sister Janice shares her remarkable journey from working in banking and finance and raising her daughter as a single mother, to later entering religious life and dedicating herself to Catholic ministry and spiritual formation. Today, she serves as the Director of the Dominican Center for Spirituality and Mission, helping others grow deeper in their relationship with God.
We also explore centering prayer, a powerful Christian meditation practice that helps quiet the mind, rest in God’s presence, and discover our true self in Christ.

In this conversation, you’ll hear about:
• Sister Janice Brown’s unexpected path to becoming a Dominican Sister
• How centering prayer helps us listen to God in silence
• The role of discernment in Catholic life and vocation
• Ministry in adult literacy and education in Detroit
• Discovering your true self and spiritual calling

If you are searching for Catholic prayer practices, discernment guidance, or inspiration for your faith journey, this conversation will encourage you to listen for where God is leading you.

Reflection question:
Where is the Lord calling you today?
