Associates

                                               

The Sisters of Saint Joseph of Philadelphia invite women and men, 18 or older, of diverse backgrounds, to join them in responding to the Gospel call of unity and reconciliation.

While Associates may already be bonded to the Sisters of Saint Joseph through family, friendship or ministry, sharing in the charism and mission of the Sisters of Saint Joseph deepens these relationships.Through this relationship associates and sisters experience mutual support in responding to the universal call to holiness.

Associates live the mission in ways as varied as the ordinary circumstances of their lives.“We Live And Work So That All People May Be United With God And With One Another.”  Constitutions, Sisters of Saint Joseph
