Hay una expresión: “¡No se acaba hasta que se acaba!” Algunos podrían decir que la vida religiosa ha terminado. Que ya se acabó. … Yo no lo creo. ¿Por qué no? Estamos llamadas a reflexionar más profundamente sobre el significado de todo esto.
There is an expression: “It’s not over ‘til it’s over!” Some might say that religious life has ended. It’s over. … I think not. Why not? We are called to reflect more deeply on what all of this means.
The Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet are a congregation of Catholic sisters. We, and those who share our charism and mission, are motivated in all things by our profound love of God and our dear neighbors. We seek to build communities and bridge divides between people. Since our first sisters gathered in 1650, our members have been called to “do all things of which women are capable.” The first sisters of our congregation arrived in St. Louis, Missouri in 1836, and we now have additional locations in St. Paul, Albany, Los Angeles, Hawaii, Japan and Peru. Today, we commit to respond boldly to injustice and dare to be prophetic.
