Spirituality

Our search for the living God is not simply a personal quest but a contribution to the whole community of life. Learn more about our spirituality events and spiritual direction.

Ecology

As Sisters of St. Joseph we believe that we are a part of creation and not apart from it. Learn more about the ways we care and protect the earth.

Justice

We see spirituality and justice as one and commit ourselves to live this out in all our relationships. Systemic evils deprive people of their intrinsic rights and working to help restore these rights is the work of justice.

Education

The education and empowerment of women have always been our focus. We have four high schools and a learning program for immigrant women.
