Associates

The Associates are believers who have taken their Baptismal Commitment seriously, who wish to grow in their faith and who join us in living the Charism and Spirituality of the Congregation in such a way that religious and laity alike affirm each other's vocation.


Why Associates?
In the Encyclical "Christi Fidelis Laici" Pope John Paul II calls for the laity to be given their rightful place in the Church. As Sisters of St.Joseph of Cluny, we are aware that we have a spiritual heritage to share, a way of sanctity bequeathed by our foundress Anne Marie Javouhey.

Anne Marie Javouhey's charism was given to her for the Church. We discover this same gift in the laity who recognize in themselves an affinity with Anne Marie Javouhey.

  

Who can be an Associate of the Sisters of St.Joseph of Cluny?
Any baptized adult, woman or man, coming from very different backgrounds, who wishes to live Gospel values and is attracted by the spirit of Anne Marie Javouhey, finding in her vision an affinity with their own particular vision.
