アドベント:意識的な包括性

待降節の最後の週を迎えるにあたり、イエスを美しく映し出し、世界の傷ついた部分に神の奔放な愛を注ぎ、包摂性を生み出す「統一の愛」というカリスマをより完全に生きる道を、私たちは見極められますように。

アドベント:意識的に預言者となる勇気を持て

アドベントの旅を続ける中で、三本目のアドベントキャンドルは喜びを表し、羊飼いのキャンドルとして知られています。イエスの誕生に羊飼いたちが喜びに満ちた話を聞くとき、イエスが最初に自らを現したのは貧しい人々、見過ごされた人々、抑圧された人々であったことを思い起こしましょう。

待降節:創造への思いやりを心に留めて

待降節の旅路を歩み続けるこの季節、待ち望む時と耳を傾ける時において、第二の待降節のろうそくは平和と準備を表します。愛がこの世に訪れるのを待ち望む私たちは、創造物を慈しむことに心を留めることで、平和を準備し、体験しましょう。

About us

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.
