We are grateful for your consideration to serve one of the institutions sponsored by St. Joseph Educational Ministries. We join you on the journey of discernment, reflecting on the fit and relationship of board members with both the institution they seek to serve, as well as the legacy of the Sisters of St. Joseph (CSJ) both in charism and Catholic identity. We invite you to a reflective examination of how you see, experience, and will contribute to the mission and Catholic identity of the institution which you seek to serve.
