In this newsletter you will read about the 40th anniversary of the Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker. Bishop Ackerman and Mother Ellen were convinced that founding our community was the will of God. Mother Ellen stated in a letter written in 1979 “I do have faith that God intended us to be; there have been so many mini miracles. Our numbers did not warrant approval, yet we were fully approved as a new religious community in the Church in just eleven months. I give full credit to Bishop Ackerman for our early and unprecedented approval. ”
God has blessed our community in so many ways. We are grateful for all the prayers, and support from all our friends throughout these many years. Thank you and may God continue to bless each of you.
In Christ,
Mother Mary Christina, SJW
and the Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker
