A visit to Japan

Following our time at the UN plastic pollution treaty negotiating session in South Korea, Sisters Teresa Mitani, Chizuru Yamada and I took a plane and a boat to their home in Japan. Although I have some business to take care of here, a side benefit has been to experience life with our Japanese sisters.

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.
