Justice & Care for Creation

Our World, Our Hope, Our Responsibility!

Mission

The Justice & Care for Creation Ministry of the Sisters of Saint Joseph of Rochester seeks to raise awareness and deepen understanding of issues of injustice toward our neighbor and our earth. Having learned and prayed, we move toward loving action, individually and in collaboration with others.

Inspired by Catholic social teaching and in alignment with our SSJ Charism, we strive to:

  • promote peace & nonviolence

  • work for economic justice

  • welcome the stranger

  • respect the human dignity of all

  • seek ecological conversion
