Growing Community Roots
Our sisters and consociates founded Growing Community Roots, a nonprofit that raises funds for water catchment systems, sanitation facilities, community gardens and tree farms for schools in West Kenya.
Healing Touch as a Pathway to God and Spirituality
A number of our sisters across the congregation utilize different forms of healing touch and touch therapy as a profound means of extending compassion to people who are suffering physical and emotional pain.
Connecting with Younger Generations
Bridging generational gaps can be a challenge, but it is one that sisters from all over the congregation have taken on. Here are just a few examples of how our sisters are connecting with younger generations.
New president helps shape new St. Paul organization
A newly incorporated organization that encompasses three local ministries begun by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, St. Paul Province has welcomed a new president.
CSJ Way & Soup Supper
All are invited to come learn and pray with our community steeped in spirituality and justice during this information session with our St. Paul Province about sisters, consociates and other forms of affiliation.
A bridge from the U.S. to Kenya
Growing Community Roots invests directly in water catchment systems that provide safe water for drinking and bathing, fencing for community gardens that ensure children have nutritious meals at school and tree farms that help address the critical deforestation problem that exists in Homa Bay.
An Unchanging Charism in a Changing World
The Sisters of St. Joseph have gone through many organizational changes since our founding in 1650, while never wavering from our mission and charism. Today, guided by the Spirit, our congregation continues to discern the best way to govern ourselves.
Partners for the future
As we look at the present and into the future, we celebrate our ministries and work that have been going on for years as well as our new, exciting structures and partnerships. We offer a few examples, amongst many, in the areas of education, healthcare, service and work at the border.
Civic Conversations
Join Carondelet Village and the CSJ Justice Office for another conversation with Ramsey County Attorney, John Choi, on a variety of timely issues, especially Restorative Justice.
Making Changes to Care for Creation
On November 11, 2021, our congregation publicly committed to join Pope Francis and the universal Catholic Church on a seven-year journey to ecological conversion through the Laudato Si’ Action Platform. Efforts towards this commitment have been in the works since 1997, and the journey continues.
