As an Associate

If you feel drawn to a greater love of God and neighbor, and desire to be part of a praying, faith sharing and supportive community, you might want to consider becoming a CSJ Associate.

Associates are women and men who align themselves with the Sisters of St. Joseph in their mission and share their charism without making a commitment to a vowed life.

As a CSJ Associate, you’ll join the Sisters in ministries, Local Associate Communities, workshops, days of prayer, retreats and community gatherings.

Process for Becoming a CSJ Associate:

Contact the Co-Directors of the Associates either: S. Phyllis Esposito, CSJ 631.589.0540 or Liz Tully at: etully2003@optonline.net

For one year, you'll be invited to attend local meetings as well as large group meetings in Brentwood. The following year you'll be part of a formal orientation process. At this point you may request association with the Congregation.

The current Local Associate Communities meet at:

St. Athanasius, Brooklyn
Jamaica Community at Immaculate Conception parish
Sacred Heart, North Merrick
Sacred Heart, Hempstead
St. Joseph Renewal Center, Brentwood
Holy Spirit, Nesconset
St. John, Bohemia

If you’d like to join us as a CSJ Associate, please take that first step and contact one of the Co-Directors. Only with your involvement can the Sisters continue their mission to widen God’s circle of love.
