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.

Our next meeting will take place on April 10th. Sister Angela Faustina, CSJ will give the presentation “Surprised by God.” Our chef for the evening will be Sister Marion Renkens, CSJ. Register for our April meeting to hear Sister Angela reflect on how God can surprise us and learn Sister Marion’s recipe for yogurt pie!

It’s not over ’til it’s over

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.

Being Present and Shrimp Fettuccini

On March 13th, Sister Marilyn Lott, CSJ spoke with Fuel the Body, Fuel the Soul participants about living in the present. Sister Suzanne Giro, CSJ provided her recipe for homemade shrimp fettuccini.

Catholic Sisters Week: Hope for Authenticity

During our 2019 Congregational Chapter, we prioritized “articulating and authentically living our vows in ways that witness and speak to today’s realities.” Here is how we responded.

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.
