ASSOCIATES OF THE SISTERS OF ST JOSEPH ARE:  Committed Christians,  women or men, from all walks of life who share a deep desire for spiritual growth mirrored in the Spirituality of the Sisters of St Joseph who wish to be associated with the Sisters in their prayer and work who desire to respond to the poverty of our times – both spiritual and material. The word “associate” comes from the Latin ad socius which means literally one who is companion to or allied with.  Associates of the Sisters go back to our Founder, Father Jean Pierre Medaille, a Jesuit Missionary who recognised the need for committed people to accompany the Sisters and use their gifts to reach out to people in need – touching their lives with God’s love. Today, the Association exists to support, reinforce, encourage and stimulate each one’s faith and spiritual journey as Baptised Christians. Sisters and Associates collaborate in the mission of Unity and Reconciliation and mutually support each other’s ministries and spiritual growth.  This collaboration becomes a means of sharing, participating and growing in the knowledge of the CHARISM OF THE SISTERS OF ST JOSEPH.
