| Sister Francis Marilyn with St. John's, Canton students |
When I give presentations about the history and spirituality of the the Sisters of Saint Joseph, I always quote Marcia Allen, CSJ/Concordia, who often says that ours is a spirituality with it's feet on the street while rooted a passion for the active, inclusive love of God. [I'm paraphrasing here]
The article explains that, "One student will leave her legacy in the form of 'Feet in the Street,' a community service project dedicated to the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston. It goes on to explain, "The sisters have a motto by the same name, referring to getting out “in the street” and helping the community quietly and humbly.... The project, was specifically dedicated to Sister Francis Marilyn, a nun at her parish and a member of the Sisters of St. Joseph."
The full article and a short slide show of seven pictures can be viewed at:
Sisters of Saint Joseph have ministered at this school since 1901 and it seems obvious that St. John's, Canton, students have imbibed our spirit and spirituality with the passion and enthusiasim to move it into the future.
