The official decree from the Vatican was "promulgated" on March 19, 2007...the Feast of St. Joseph! AND...a group of us is travelling to Cleveland tomorrow for a three day Sister of St. Joseph meeting (if the weather holds out, that is!).

I taught with a delightful IHM Sister in the Detroit area for a couple of years...a really spunky old gal!

If I may ask are the Sisters of St Joseph also part of the group that is here in St. Louis, I ask this only because reading this thread has brought back some good memories for me.
Many years ago I was a Field Supervisor for a large security firm here in St. Louis and one of my accounts was the Mother House for the Sisters of St Joseph of Carondolet.
I would go by there late at night to check on the guard there and every once and a while one of the older sisters would come out and have coffee with us and before she left she would always tell us a little joke then giggle and walk off.
I still remember her to this day..
