The Dominican Sisters of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin or Dominican Sisters of the Anunciata constitute a Catholic religious congregation of apostolic life and pontifical right, founded in Vic (Catalonia, Spain) by the Dominican religious, Francisco Coll, on August 15, 1856. The decision to found this Congregation arises from Francisco Coll (1812-1875), a Dominican religious who dedicated himself to the Popular Missions. He, moved by the social and religious reality he observed in the course of his missions, began to worry about the lack of access to education, especially in small towns and girls. In turn, he knew several young women who wanted to consecrate themselves to God as religious, but because of their poverty they did not have easy entry into the monasteries of the time, which demanded an economic dowry. Coll then decided to found a new religious Congregation that did not require such a requirement and that was primarily concerned with education. Thus, on August 15, 1856, in the city of Vic, with the first seven young women, he founded the Tertiary Sisters of Saint Dominic, then called Dominican Sisters of the Anunciata. More information...
