Fuel the Body, Fuel the Soul is a virtual program that provides a forum for women to deepen their faith life. The program provides an opportunity to engage with our sisters and other women in spiritual presentations, discussions and prayer. Each gathering also features instructions for cooking a nutritious recipe presented by one of our sisters.

Developed by Sisters. Gail Trippett, Linda Markway, Eileen McCann and the late Miriam Ukeritis, Fuel the Body, Fuel the Soul relies on sisters from all over the congregation to serve as presenters, chefs and facilitators. The program is set to run from October 2024 to May 2025.

Sister Lisa Lazio, CSJ will give the presentation “What Role Does Intentionality Play in My Life’s Vocation?” on February 13th. Our chef for the evening will be Sister Renee Adamany, CSJ. Register for our February meeting to hear Sister Lisa reflect on intentionality and learn Sister Renee’s hummus recipe!

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.
