Virginia Kelleher, CSJ, speaks passionately about why she became a Sister of St. Joseph of Boston and how she is able to “give and share God’s gifts – his peace, his joy, his love.” Now retired, she lives at St. Joseph Hall, Framingham, where she continues to help out wherever there might be a need. Sister Ginny writes condolence letters to the family and friends of the sister who has died; during congregation meetings she runs the video streaming equipment at St. Joseph Hall; and she also loves the joy she brings coordinating holiday parties and gatherings.

We are continuing to share a videos, photos, and personal narratives from sisters and partners in mission by posting on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and our website.

Included in this message is a “Reflection and Prayer” to End Human Trafficking. This prayer extends from January 11, 2019, which is Human Trafficking Awareness day, through February 8, 2019, the feast of St. Josephine Bakhita. We are grateful to the Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange, CA, who designed this calendar and offer it for the use of all.
