Our Inspiration
Mission Statement
Sisters of Saint Joseph Earth Center,
a sponsored work of the Sisters of St. Joseph,
fosters opportunities to reflect, practice and celebrate
the truth that all is sacred.
By integrating artistic expression with holistic spirituality,
the Center hopes to model ways
of living in harmony with all of creation.
We take inspiration from Miriam T. MacGillis, OP, who says the Great Work is the
context within which everything else we do is held. Miriam presented the New
Universe Story vision to the volunteers and presenters in February 2005.
We take inspiration from Thomas Berry, CP, who said the Universe Story “opens our eyes to the full dimension of the ecological crisis, framing it as a crisis of spiritual vision.”
Evening Thoughts, Thomas Berry, 2006.
