Become A Sister

For us, becoming a Sister means belonging to a community. It is purposeful. It means standing with others who share our faith and mission. It means being able to say, "I'm home. I am living who I am meant to be."

WHO WE ARE

The Sisters of Saint Joseph of Rochester is a community of Roman Catholic women religious. Beyond our Congregation, we are joined by our SSJ Associates, countless supporters, & friends.

In the past, people saw the Sisters of Saint Joseph as the backbone for staffing Catholic schools & hospitals. Today, we are still teachers & care givers but, that's only part of the picture.
