Mission Statement
The Office of Mission Advancement
of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston
fully supports the mission and
ministries of the sisters. We raise
funds to support all present and future
ministries and to continue the legacy of
the community.
We also provide funds through
donor generosity to care for our elderly
and infirm sisters. All donations enable
the Congregation to strengthen its
mission of unity and reconciliation
among the people it serves.
Connecting is published
semi-annually by the Office of
Mission Advancement of the
Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston.

From the President
T
he anthropologist, Mary Catherine
Batson, wrote a book a few years
ago entitled Composing a Further
Life. In it, she challenges us to think about
and approach our lives “with the full force
of imagination, curiosity and enthusiasm.” As
we intentionally plan for the ways we can
further serve the “dear neighbor,” it is with
this imagination, curiosity, and enthusiasm
that we, the Sisters of St. Joseph, celebrate
140 years of dedicated service to the people
of Boston and beyond.
Of course, we know we are not alone in this
great venture. Thanks to you, our faithful donors, our sisters
and associates can roll up their sleeves to educate curious young adults, provide
English lessons to new peoples, be a welcoming presence to hospital patients,
offer spiritual guidance, and assist the diocese in parish planning.Your generosity
enables our retired sisters to continue to be an active presence among the people
of God as lectors, Eucharistic ministers, home visitors, and tutors. And your
kindness supports our infirm sisters as they attend with great fervor to their
ministry of prayer.
This spring issue of Connecting is one which moves our hearts to a place
of celebration, remembrance, and gratitude. We celebrate those who are being
honored on a notable occasion, for a particular accomplishment, or for enhancing
the lives of others in a special way. We also prayerfully remember with fondness
all who have lived the fullness of their lives and have now entered into a new life.
As we continue celebrating our 140th anniversary, please know our hearts are
filled with gratitude for you, our benefactors. By your ongoing generosity, each
of you enhances our capacity to continue to “roll up our sleeves,” be about our
mission and ministry, and witness to God’s active, inclusive love alive in our world.
With deep gratitude,
Rosemary Brennan, CSJ
Elected Chairperson of LCWR Region 1
We are pleased to announce that at a recent LCWR Region 1 meeting,
Rosemary Brennan, CSJ, was elected as chairperson.
As chair of Region 1, Rosemary will also serve on the
national board of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious.
From the Office of
Mission Advancement
W
elcome to our spring issue of
Connecting.
In this issue we remember those
who enriched your lives. We pray for those you
have remembered through loving tribute gifts, our
memorial card program, and our “in lieu of flowers”
program. We thank the friends and relatives who
generously chose to recognize special achievements
and milestones with a gift to the Sisters of St.
Joseph of Boston.
When I see all the names in this issue, I am
overwhelmed by the thoughtfulness and generosity
you have shown us. I can’t help but wonder about
the lives that each name represents - about the
goodness and joy these people brought to your life.
I reflect on how your deceased loved one may have
been a teacher, parent, sibling or friend who had
a profound influence on the course of your life. I
wonder about those you have honored who are still
living and I pray that they continue to be a positive
force in your life and the life of our world.
I hope you enjoy this issue. As you read the
stories of our sisters and associates with their
“sleeves rolled up” for ministry or volunteers who
help to support our events, please know that we
consider you, too, a real and valued partner in our
mission of uniting “neighbor with neighbor and
neighbor with God”.
Thank You.
Carol Mack
Director of Mission Advancement
Something New
We just wanted you to be the first to know….Starting
in spring of 2015 we will be sharing and displaying
your tribute gifts in a different way. Instead of printing
tribute names in Connecting, we will be posting them
each spring on our website at www.csjboston.org. This
will allow us to post more names and the names will
be viewed by a larger audience for a longer period of
time.
Our website is constantly being updated.You can
keep up with the latest activities and milestones of the
sisters, see the latest Connecting and Soundings
magazines, see invitations to Sisters of St. Joseph events
and make on-line donations there as well.
We thank you sincerely for using our cards to honor
and remember your loved ones. These tribute gifts
are greatly appreciated. Thank you also for designating
the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston as the recipient of
memorial gifts given “In Lieu of Flowers”. We are truly
touched that in a time of grief and mourning families
are moved to support our Sisters with this designation.
We are honored and grateful for your thoughtfulness
and generosity.

Sister Anna Edge
Sister Anna answers questions from Sister Helen Thomas Colbert about iPad usage
during a recent Cyber Cafe session.
S
ometimes, they call her the ‘computer doctor’ because responding to
calls for technical help is part of Sister Anna’s day. She loves her ministry
working in the IT Department of the Congregation because it allows
her to use her gifts and talents to further the mission of the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Boston.
Sister Anna, who entered in 1978, taught for 11 years in grades three through
eight at St. Clement Elementary School in Somerville. During that time computers
were being introduced in the classroom, so when asked if she would attend a
workshop on Apple computers she willingly volunteered. And thus it began.
Today, her job includes teaching the sisters and associates computer programs,
applications, and the use of iPads. Sister Anna helps to keep the sisters who
live out of state, at Bethany Health Care Center, and those who are unable
to attend Congregation gatherings at the Motherhouse remain connected by
video streaming these events over the Internet. She can also be seen repairing
computers and answering many and varied questions related to technology.
Sister Anna has witnessed the wonders of technology reuniting sisters with
their families. Like the time a sister was able to video chat using Skype with a
family member she hadn’t seen for a number of years; or when another sister
contacted her family in Ireland through email for the first time; or the privilege
she experienced when residents at Bethany Hill School received certificates for
completing courses she offered.
". . .Sister Anna feels blessed because she sees the mission
of the Congregation being lived out each day, connecting
neighbor with neighbor and neighbor with God."
Enabling others to use technology with comfort and ease is a goal that Sister
Anna strives for in her ministry. Through this ministry Sister Anna feels blessed
because she sees the mission of the Congregation being lived out each day,
connecting neighbor with neighbor and neighbor with God. †

Arlington Catholic High School Honors
140 Years of CSJ Service
Arlington Catholic’s wall of memories.

Cathy Clifford. Group picture: Sisters at the
celebration.

R
ecently, Arlington Catholic High School honored past and present Sisters of St.
Joseph in celebration of their 140th year in Boston and beyond. Following a Mass
at St. Agnes Parish, nearly 30 sisters walked to the high school to view a wall of
memories designed by Arlington Catholic alumna, Donna LaValle Rockwell, with images
provided by CSJ Archivist Sister Mary Rita Grady. Sister Frances Agnes Blake was honored
for being the only living, founding CSJ of Arlington Catholic High School, which opened in
1960.

Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston 9
Awards and Recognitions
Sister Mary O’Rourke received
a Cheverus Medal from the
Archdiocese of Boston in
recognition of her service to the
Catholic community. The medal
recipients - lay people, religious,
and deacons - are chosen for their
service to the Church and God’s
people. Some have served their
parishes over an extended period of time and have done
so in a quiet, unassuming and, perhaps, unrecognized
fashion. Most recipients are nominated by their pastors,
forwarded by the area vicar, and approved by the regional
bishop and Cardinal O’Malley.
For sixteen years, Sister Mary ministered at Blessed
Sacrament, Saugus, first as a Pastoral Associate and later
by teaching faith formation classes and offering prayer and
reflection.
Sister Ellen Powers,
a 1963 graduate
of Regis College,
was presented with
the 2013 Alumnae
Excellence Award
during Regis’ Reunion
Weekend 2013. This
award recognizes
alumnae who have
achieved excellence in profession or community, in
education, or in the arts. Sister Ellen’s closing remarks
stated, “The next chapter of my journey is unknown.
One thing I know, I will continue to learn that productive
giving is an art, perfected by my constant reflection on
the changing needs of others and my ability to respond to
these needs. . .” Her comments truly reflect the charism
of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston.
Sister Anne D’Arcy
and Sister Pat Boyle
were honored for their
years of service in the
Archdiocese at a staff
meeting held at the
Pastoral Center of the
Archdiocese of Boston.
Sister Anne has served
58 years and Sister Pat
has served 45 years. A
plaque was hung in the foyer of the Pastoral Center to
acknowledge their many years of service.

Sister Jacquelyn McCarthy,
Director of Bethany
Health Care Center, was
honored by the American
College of Health Care
Administrators (ACHCA).
Each year, ACHCA
recognizes the leaders
of top-performing skilled
nursing facilities across
the country through its Eli
Pick Facility Leadership Award. ACHCA believes that facility
excellence is a reflection of leadership excellence.
Sister Laura Turbini, Consultant for
International Reliability Consultants,
received the Electronic, Magnetic &
Photonic Materials Division (EMPMD)
Award for her great passion for
student education, not only in the
classroom, but also at the Transcranial
Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) annual
meetings. Her vision and passion were
demonstrated in her activities of
volunteer, teacher, and attendee.
The award recognizes an individual whose continuous
service to the TMS EMPMD has clearly facilitated the
society’s capability to serve its electronic, magnetic, and
photonic materials-oriented members and supporting
organizations.
For the fifth consecutive year, Casserly House, and its
Director, Sister Nancy Braceland, received a grant from the
Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office Asset Forfeiture
Revinvestment Program. District Attorney Dan Conley
acknowledged the vital role Casserly House continues to
play in the neighborhood. The funds will be utilized to sustain
preventative after-school and summer camp programs for
at-risk neighborhood children.

S
Sister Alberta Marie Olsen with Sister Jean Mulloy.
ister Jean Mulloy’s ministries have taken her down a rewarding
pathway. Her first ministry was at Cathedral High School in the South
End. For Sister Jean, who entered in 1953, her classroom assignments
expanded into much more as Cathedral’s enrichment programs for children
from the projects grew. By 1971, she was missioned to work in parishes in
Waltham and Quincy where she visited the sick, taught adult education, and
helped parishioners cope with everyday life. Later, she helped
re-establish St. Mary of the Angels Parish in Roxbury in a challenging
neighborhood where there was considerable unrest.
“None of us works alone,
and each of us has gifts to bring.”
Sister Jean said, “We made a clear-cut decision to roll up our sleeves and
help.” Sisters went into the streets daily to get to know the people and the
neighborhood. “It was exciting,” said Sister Jean, who noted that when they
arrived there the first Mass was attended by five people. Five years later, nearly
200 attended Mass, where now “the church was a presence.”
For the next 21 years, Sister Jean worked at Cardinal Cushing and St.
Coletta Day schools in Braintree. As Vice President of Mission Effectiveness,
she oversaw various programs for children and the elderly, and partnered the
pastoral outreach with business management aspects.
Sister Jean also worked with 110 volunteers at Faith in Action Elderly
Program in Watertown, and was Director of Pastoral Care at Franciscan
Children’s Hospital. Now semi-retired, Sister Jean coordinates the CSJ
transportation program. Her cell phone is her office so that she can help sisters
by arranging rides to appointments, to shop, or to visit friends and family.
Through her ministries, she helped create programs and partnerships as she
witnessed “a lot of connecting.” In fact, Sister Jean has experienced a sense of
community everywhere she’s been. “None of us works alone, and each of us
has gifts to bring.” †

Sister Ellie Wiegand
S
Sister Eleanor Wiegand and her sister Mary, a Bethany Health Care Center
resident.
ister Ellie Wiegand seems happiest when she is busy. That was evident during
her interview for Connecting, when she noted that not only was she being
interviewed, but she also had two banana breads and two coffee cakes in the
oven. Baking for the sisters and caring for them is definitely an important ministry for
her. In fact, her cooking for the Congregation began early, as soon as she entered the
Sisters of St. Joseph in 1959.
Sister Ellie used her cooking skills for 13 years, and then realized she wanted to do
something different. So she applied to Bethany and became a nurse’s aide. While at
Bethany Healthcare Center, she studied at both Labouré College and Regis College
where she earned degrees in nursing. With a chuckle, Sister Ellie noted that she began
at Bethany.
After serving as Director of Nurses for several years, it was time to move on. Sister
Ellie went back to cooking, this time at St. Joseph Retreat Center in Cohasset. She
expected to be there for one year, but she stayed for four! Sister Ellie said she loved
that ministry, where she met so many different people. When she turned 60 in 2000, it
was time for another change, and it was back to nursing.
"Sister Ellie enjoys nursing and meeting
the needs of the patients.
'It’s very rewarding,'she said."
Since 2000, Sister Ellie has been part-time nursing supervisor at Bethany, where she
does many different things with and for the residents. For example, she brings the
bookmobile around to patients, drives them to appointments, and just generally spends
time with them to be connected to them and companion with them.
She enjoys nursing and meeting the needs of the patients. “It’s very rewarding,” she
said, “to help those who are frail, and those who can’t drive anymore.” And, of course,
Sister Ellie continues to bake for the sisters with whom she lives, providing well for
their special "likes"! †

First Annual "Living the Dream" Dinner 2014
n March 29, 2014, nearly 300 guests gathered at the Seaport Hotel
to celebrate the 140th Anniversary of the Sisters of St. Joseph in the
Greater Boston area. Co-chaired by John E. Drew and Francis Dillon,
and supported by a hardworking committee of volunteers, our first annual
benefit, “Living the Dream” Dinner, was a hugely successful evening.
We honored Margaret and Paul Chisholm with our first Dear Neighbor
Award. Margie and Paul truly share in the charism of the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Boston as they continue to serve the “dear neighbor” without distinction.
MC, Mike Sheehan, orchestrated a lively program featuring remarks from
our President, Sister Rosemary Brennan, a video highlighting the ministries
of sisters Adela Rodriguez, Rita McCormack, and Catherine Ginty, a moving
personal witness by Pauline Fillman, and closing remarks by Gail Donahue, CSJ
Leadership team.
During the 140th celebration, there was a great sense of a profound love of
God and love of neighbor without distinction. Many in attendance renewed
and strengthened relationships with others and learned the sisters still can
be found in shelters, food pantries, parishes, schools, hospitals, nursing homes,
retreat, chaplaincy, campus ministry centers, refugee services, literacy programs,
programs for at risk youth, and so many more places where the need is great.
We wish to thank everyone for celebrating with us, in particular the event
committee for their hard work and the generosity of sponsors, donors, and
attendees.Your generosity enables the sisters to continue their work, while
supporting and caring for their elderly and infirm sisters.

Cecile (Ceil)Darcy, CSJ Associate
C
ecile Darcy, fondly called Ceil, is a woman of deep faith. She was
educated through her first eight grades by the Sisters of St. Joseph.
She and her sister first realized that they were both poor and loved
when a sister beckoned and took them aside to give them some tea and pound
cake because the sisters were concerned about limited provisions with eleven
children at home.
Over and over, love was shared as Ceil grew up, married, and began to raise
her own five children. The family tradition of Catholic education continued with
her children attending St. William School in Dorchester where the CSJ presence
was a constant. As her family grew, Ceil became a volunteer at Bingo which
helped to support the school. She remained a volunteer there for 30 years!
“If I turn in any direction, whether during a difficult
time in my life or a joyful time, I will encounter a
CSJ or a familiar face of an associate.”
Ceil had a good friend, a former CSJ, who encouraged her to participate in the
CSJ Associate Program following the death of her son. She became an associate
in 1995, and this experience has both helped her in her grieving and also
strengthened the link to CSJs for her.
Experiencing the deaths of other family members or friends, Ceil has found
herself quickly surrounded by CSJs and CSJ Associates who have reached out to
her. Ceil remarked: “If I turn in any direction, whether during a difficult time in
my life or a joyful time, I will encounter a CSJ or a familiar face of an associate.”
Praying with sisters and associates and spending time with them at St. Joseph
Retreat Center in Cohasset deepens her faith life and strengthens her lifelong
link with the CSJs. Among them, she finds “peace without worrying.”
Ceil has been a volunteer in the Office of Mission Advancement for 14 years.
She credits her commitment to volunteer service throughout her lifetime to her
association with the CSJs. She has adapted to a variety of roles within the office
and is always ready and willing to assist with any number of different tasks. Ceil
is one of many volunteers for whom we are so thankful! †

If It Doesn’t Say Boston,
It’s Not Ours
We have, once again, received phone calls and notes from our
friends, relatives, and donors saying that they have received
solicitations from the Sisters of St. Joseph of Springfield.
We share many things with our Springfield sisters: history,
tradition, friendship and a passion for mission. We do not
share finances. We do not share our mailing list with any
other group. Nonprofits can purchase mailing lists from
magazines and companies. The Springfield sisters do,
and that is why you receive their mailings.
Our mailings always have our logo:
Our mailing address is always:

Please accept my donation in
memory of my dearest friend,
Patricia Friel. Pat touched so
many lives with her many acts
of kindness, generous heart
and her everyday caring that
matters so much. Her faith was
the cornerstone of her life. I
will miss her more than words
can say – but feel so fortunate
to have been blessed with her
friendship. God bless the Sisters
of St. Joseph and the wonderful
work they do.

Kathy Tighe, CSJ Associate
Kathy tutors a child at Casserly House.
M
eet Kathy Tighe, newly elected to our CSJ Associate Leadership Team. For
those who may be unfamiliar with the Associate Program, CSJ Associates
are lay people who share the faith journey of the Sisters of St. Joseph of
Boston while affirming their own vocations. Unlike professed sisters, they take no
vows, but recommit themselves annually as associates.
"CSJ Associates are lay people who
share the faith journey of the
Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston
while affirming their own vocations."
Kathy’s sleeves are always rolled up! She generously expends her boundless
energy and enthusiasm as a volunteer at St. Francis House in Boston where she
helps with the soup kitchen and clothing distribution. She also has her sleeves rolled
up whenever she works with the summer camp program at Casserly House in
Roslindale.
Kathy is a deeply spiritual woman whose commitment and faith have taken her
from her ministry here in Boston to working with the New Mexico CSJ Associates,
our Volunteers in Mission Program, and all the way to El Salvador, where she was
trained and then served as an election observer. Truly she ministers to the “dear
neighbor without distinction”.
When asked “Why did you become a CSJ Associate?” Kathy told me that she was
attracted to CSJ spirituality, sense of purpose, and especially the community. She
is humbled by being elected to the CSJA Leadership Team, and she knows that by
accepting this role she is where God needs her to be. She looks forward to “Daring
to Dream”, and making the dream a reality. †

The Women's Table
637 Cambridge St., Brighton, MA
The Women's Table, birthed in conjunction with the 135th
anniversary of the Sisters of St. Joseph arrival in Boston
in 2008, is honored to be jointly celebrating the 140th
anniversary of the sisters in 2014!
The Women's Table would not be thriving without your
help! Connecting neighbor-with-neighbor and neighborwith-God is the clear mission of the Sisters of St. Joseph,
and this is the cornerstone of The Women’s Table. Other
words echo this, in particular, relationship, connections,
compassion, outreach, unity and community. Without you
and the collaboration of sisters, associates, local coalitions,
area social service agencies, and generous individuals we
would not exist, let alone thrive!
During the evening of April 30, William Cafferky was
recognized by The Women's Table with the Founding
Sponsor Award; the award was accepted by his daughter,
Corrine. Reverend Karen Fritz, of the Brighton/Allston
Congregational Church, United Church of Christ, and
Priscilla Lasmarias Kelso, who helped initiate The Women's
Table Multicultural Circle, were both recognized as
Community Partners.

The Literacy Connection
637 Cambridge St., Brighton, MA
Allston-Brighton Unsung Heroine
Our dedicated
volunteer tutors are
the mainstay of The
Literacy Connection’s
adult literacy and
citizenship program.
On June 4 ,2014, Anne
Mahoney of Brighton
will be acknowledged
and honored as an
Allston-Brighton
Unsung Hero for her
volunteer efforts on behalf of the Allston-Brighton Community
Anne has been a tutor at The Literacy Connection for
10 years and has worked with adult students from Nepal,
Bangladesh, China, Russia, Pakistan and the Dominican Republic.
With patience, humor, and gentle persistence, Anne has guided
her students through the hurdles of learning homophones and
homonyms, understanding idiomatic expressions, and the pitfalls
of our Boston accent! Along with English language instruction,
she has encouraged and assisted one student to obtain a driver’s
license and helped 3 of her students become U.S. Citizens.
Congratulations, Anne! A well deserved honor!
Husband and Wife Citizenship Teams
The Literacy Connection
is always proud to
recognize and “shout”
the praise of our
students who take the
monumental step of
becoming new citizens
of the United States.
We currently list 114
of our students on
our Citizenship Honor
Roll. On April 17, we
congratulated two of our students, Gilberto and Terezinha
Queiroga, who were sworn in at the Seaport World Trade
Center along with 2,500 other new citizens. Gilberto and
Terezinha represent The Literacy Connection’s 17th “husband
and wife team” to become US citizens!

Casserly House
42 Stellman Rd., Roslindale, MA
“Rooted in Boston, Open to the World.”
Casserly House provides three main services. The first
service is an adult ESOL program. We currently work with
students from 16 different countries, Monday to Friday
from 9 am to 12 pm. English language and literacy classes
are provided for adults living in the neighborhood. Knowing
that our adult students are eager to join the workforce, our
ESOL program includes resumé preparation, interviewing
skills, and computer literacy support. Also included is a
broad array of support services, including citizenship support,
immigration issues, and transitional assistance.
The second service is an After-School Program. Monday
to Thursday from 3pm to 5pm, 15 neighborhood children
in 2nd to 5th grade come for homework help and tutoring
support. College and high school tutors serve as vital role
models. In July, we have a two-week Summer Educational
Camp with a focus on reading, computers, and art.
Along with these two primary services, we also provide
a third broad array of neighborhood services including
neighborhood gatherings, meetings, and prayer. We are a
vibrant, busy center of community care and support. We
maintain partnerships with other non-profits and community
organizations to anticipate and respond to neighborhood
issues and concerns.

Saint Joseph Retreat Center
Cohasset, MA
FOURS, FORTY AND THE FUTURE!
One-hundred and forty years ago, in 1874, Dr. S.
Kneeland became the first owner of 339 Jerusalem
Road in Cohasset, MA. After passing through several
family owners, the visionary leadership team of the
Sisters of St. Joseph purchased the property in 1947.
For decades, this was the only place where sisters
could enjoy a day's or a week's vacation at the beach.
Forty years ago, another leadership team envisioned
opening the door of #339 to women and men of all
faith denominations who seek and thirst for spiritual
renewal. St. Joseph Villa eventually became St. Joseph
Retreat Center.
In 2014, our CSJ leadership Team authorized the
renovation of the common bathroom built in 1947
into four private bathrooms. A structural analysis was
undertaken and the decision was made to invest in
vital repairs to the century-plus, weather-beaten house.
The mission of St. Joseph Retreat Center is to respond
to the need of our "dear neighbors" for re-connection
with self, God, all humankind, and all creation. It has
been assessed and affirmed to be as great a need in
2014 and into the future, as it was in 1947 and 1974.
Our neighbors find nourishment in individual
spiritual direction, mornings and days of prayer, our
Spiritual Direction Training Program, Professional Day
Programs for trained spiritual directors and pastoral
ministers. Neighbors from near and far (including
Australia and Africa!) come for our fifty-three day
sabbatical program and/or one of our twenty-two
longer retreats. Others arrive for weekend retreats, or
as members of a Hosted Group such as a parish team,
prayer group, academic faculty, etc.
We delight that our door is open to the world
and to you! We keep our ear to God’s heartbeat

Bridget Zukas †
I knew Sister Peggy Lowell for a long time.
I belonged to Immaculate Conception
Church in Cambridge for 50 years, where
Sister Peggy was until she moved to
Watertown and volunteered at Brigham
House Assisted Living. I have a photo of
her and myself with the scarfs we knitted
and donated to the homeless. She also
read stories from the Chicken Soup for the
Soul books. She brought so much joy to
everyone. She will long be remembered and
is sorely missed. She was one of a kind. I am
one of many who loved her very much.
