Sisters of St. Joseph: Together in Mission
I'm spending this week with a group of wonderful women who are planning the 2011 Event for the U.S. Federation of the Sisters of St. Joseph. There will be much to report on that in the months to come.
As many know, the Sisters of St. Joseph number over 12,000 sisters and about 5,000 associates in over 50 countries throughout the world. In the past couple of years this "Joseph Family" started a "Global Coordinating Committee" as one way of connecting all the congregations of Sisters of St. Joseph who trace their roots to LePuy, France. One way of making those connections has been "Together in Mission," a newsletter published by a subcommittee of the Global Coordinating Committee. The second issue of "Together in Mission" can be viewed at http://www.csjboston.org/News-Together-in-Mission.pdf
On another note...the devastation in Haiti continues. There is an article in the January 22 issue of the Metro West Daily news about how Regis College is reaching out to help Haiti.
Finally, for today, our latest issue of printed Soundings just came back from the printer yesterday and is being distributed. It can also be viewed on our website at http://www.csjboston.org/SOUNDINGS.htm
It's a big document so takes a little while to download...be patient!
