CSJ Companions

Companions are lay women and men continuing Christ's Mission in today's world. Together with the Sisters of St. Joseph, through their Charism of Unity and Reconciliation, they proclaim the Father's love.

In the early period of the Congregation there existed, along with the Sisters, Agregees or groups of women who had a stable spiritual bond with the Congregation. In our own time, we recognize and make provision for women and men who share the Charism of the Sisters of St. Joseph but do not intend to make profession in the Congregation.

Who Might Become One? Men and women who feel drawn to a deeper living out of Gospel values with special emphasis on the Gospel call to unity and reconciliation.

What Is Involved? A willingness to learn about CSJ history, mission and charism; a continuation of one's own life style and a willingness to grow personally, spiritually and communally.

Why Might One Want To Be A CSJ Companion?
  • to deepen one's relationship with God
  • to experience the mutual support of a faith community
  • to participate in opportunities for personal growth and sharing of gifts
  • to deepen one's commitment to the wider church and/or civic communities

The life and works of our Congregation are directed to a single end: the union of ourselves and all people/creation with God and with one another in and through Christ Jesus.
