Spirituality

The Renewal Center

The tradition of the Sisters of St. Joseph is characterized by our concern for all without distinction…making a difference in the local as well as the world community…and most of all, addressing the needs of our times as we widen God’s circle of love.

At our Renewal Center we welcome those who wish to be more connected with their inner selves, with God, and with others. Our Center, Chapel, and wooded grounds are an ideal, peaceful space to pray, to reflect, and to grow spiritually. You’ll find opportunities for retreats, parish and youth workshops, adult programs, support groups, and training in spiritual direction.
