This morning someone posted a question asking if we have a place where people can make retreats. Our retreat center has just published its latest online newsletter called Tidings. Just scroll down a bit on St. Joseph Retreat Center website and you can download a copy.
AS JULY APPROACHES...
There has been some exciting pre-event press coverage of our Sisters of St. Joseph Federation National Event. You can view a list of this press coverage at:

In particular I'd encourage you to watch the TV segment by Mike Rush at KSDK in St. Louis which tells the story of the hotel's collaboration with the Sisters of St. Joseph Federation and other organizations. The title of the segment is "Millennium Hotel partnering with Covering House to train its employees to spot the signs of human trafficking." We started working on this over two years ago. During this process we became aware of the work of The Covering House. As a result, they too, have become an integral part of this collaboration.

Thanks for the info about retreats.
ReplyDeleteThe place where you took your summer picture looks nice too!
Will be praying for your Federation assembly.
Is getting new membership a concern? Not too many people in your federation Novitiate..TOO BAD!
We certainly invite new members to discern whether God is calling them to live their life as a Sister of St. Joseph. Our the past few years over 60 women have been part of our Federation Novitiate. Being with these women is a powerful and energizing experience of the presence of the Spirit alive within our church.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the clarification about the Novitiate
ReplyDeletemembers since on the federation website I only noticed 3 and that did not seem to be too many.
So glad that you've had 60! That's great!
Your meeting will be in my prayers!
