The agrégée commitment is an emerging relationship in our congregation. Agrégées live the CSJ charism and mission of unifying love of God and the dear neighbor without distinction. 

The agrégée commitment is characterized by:

  • Continual deepening of one’s spiritual life
  • Participation in an annual agrégées retreat
  • Living simply in the spirit of Gospel values
  • Sustaining close community ties with other agrégées
  • Being responsible for one’s own personal financial matters
  • Participating in community gatherings
  • Making an annual financial contribution to the Sisters of St. Joseph 

See our foundational document, Sacred is the Call.
