Eco-Challenge: Cut out cutlery
In a world filled with single-use plastics, small choices can lead to big changes for our planet. One simple step you can take is to refuse plastic cutlery when ordering takeout or dining at events.
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.” Today, we commit to respond boldly to injustice and dare to be prophetic.

We often think about what food we eat and its effects on the health of our bodies. We also need to be aware of the impact our food has on the health of our planet.
A menudo pensamos en los alimentos que comemos y en sus efectos sobre la salud de nuestro cuerpo. También debemos ser conscientes del impacto que tienen nuestros alimentos en la salud de nuestro planeta.
私たちはしばしば自分が食べる食べ物とそれが体の健康に与える影響について考えます。また、私たちの食べ物が地球の健康に与える影響についても意識する必要があります。

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.
