All CSJ sponsored ministries are responsible and accountable for embodying these Core Qualities.

The sponsored ministries of the Congregation of St. Joseph embody these core qualities which unite and distinguish them as furthering the CSJ mission.

CSJ Sponsored Ministries:

  • Take leadership in changing societal systems that cause injustice, oppression, poverty, and degradation of Earth, with special attention to those who are made poor by unjust systems;
  • Ensure the inclusion, in all aspects of the ministry, of those who are typically excluded, underrepresented or undervalued;
  • Empower those who serve in our ministries, and those being served, through identifying and building on their strengths, and the effective use of their voice.
